As summer is winding down and with it your beautiful blooming annuals and perennials, Muhlenbergia Pink Muhly Grass is springing up—giant puffballs of cotton-candy pink, so airy you expect a breeze to carry them away! An absolutely show stopping source of late-season color, this native grass is also effortless to grow and tolerant of just about anything Mother Nature throws its way.
Muhlenbergia Pink Muhly Grass forms a nice little hedge, edging, or middle-of-the-border ribbon of color from spring through summer, but when the rosy-pink plumes arise on 4-foot stems, it grabs the garden spotlight. These plumes are so finely cut they look airbrushed in. Perfect for indoor arrangements, they keep their color and texture beautifully outdoors as well, lasting through fall as the birds come to feast. Stunning!
Pink Muhly Grass reaches 4 feet high and 3 feet wide, with a nicely cascading, fountainous habit of foliage and fanned out, unbelievably profuse blooms. Give Muhlenbergia Pink Muhly Grass plenty of sunshine and good soil drainage, and it will do the rest, beautifully withstanding heat, humidity, drought, and poor soil.
Long-lived and impervious to pests and disease, this North American native is a must-have in the low-maintenance garden. Plant it en masse and enjoy the late-season color for years to come.
