Dwarf Fountain Grass

In late summer, buff-colored flower heads of Dwarf Fountain Grass pop up in profusion on 12″ spikes. The graceful fountain-like plumes slowly change color from buff to soft pinks and light-colored maroons. One to three plants are effective in small gardens as an accent, and in larger areas, mass plantings are stunning. Adds structure to the winter garden as well as seed for birds.

  • Dense, short mounds are great in any landscape
  • Use as specimen or mass planting
