Plant Theory Heavy Metal Switch Grass Panicum Virgatum Outdoor Ornamental Plant 2L Pot in Green

Striking red foliage. Position: full sun Soil: moderately fertile, well-drained soil Rate of growth: slow-average Flowering period: August and September Hardiness: fully hardy Easily mistaken for Japanese Blood grass (Imperata cylindrica Rubra), this grass starts off with green, strap-like leaves that turn red at the tips in June, and produces light, airy flower panicles in summer. In autumn, the foliage turns a spectacular deep burgundy. It likes full sun, and unlike Imperata, can cope with dry summers. Try it in small groups among taller grasses, or against tall perennials. Garden care: Cut it back when it starts to look tatty. Lift and divide between mid-spring and summer. | Plant Theory Heavy Metal Switch Grass Panicum Virgatum Outdoor Ornamental Plant 2L Pot in Green
