Panicum Virgatum Prairie Sky | 2L Pot

Striking steely blue stems and foliage topped with delicate airy flowerheads. Position: full sun Soil: moderately fertile, moist but well-drained soil Rate of Growth: average Flowering period: August and September Hardiness: fully hardy A great, back of border, architectural grass from the prairies of North America. Blue-green foliage topped with drooping, hazy, bluish-tinted flowers appear in early autumn and turns a blaze of orange-yellow as the season comes to an end. Leaving the seedheads on during winter will add interest as the delicate spikelets shiver and shimmer in the frosted breeze. Garden care: Cut back in early spring when it starts to look tatty, and lift and divide congested clumps between mid-spring and summer.
