Annual Fountain Grass

Annual fountain grasses are an excellent way to add height to container plantings or to use as an accent in landscape beds.  These three different varieties provide great color, texture, and movement to your landscape.  Their upright, arching habit is complete with graceful seed heads throughout the summer.  Just remember, these are all annual grasses, so they will need to be replanted every spring.

Available Varieties:

  • Fireworks – New leaves are striped with white, burgundy and green.  In full sun, the green and white will turn to hot pink and red.
  • Rubrum – Reddish stems, leaves, and seed heads; great for large containers.  Also known as Purple Fountain Grass.
