Pink Muhly Grass (Muhlenbergia capillaris)

This densely mounding, finely textured grass grows well in a sandy, well drained soil. Beautiful plumes - late summer to fall color lasts 6-8 weeks. The pinkish-purple haze seen at a distance is created by airy flower heads. We do not recommend planting ornamental grasses in the Autumn if you can avoid it. They prefer to have a bit longer to establish their root system. It's best to plant in Spring or Summer. Once established it needs little care. * Deer Seldom Browse * Photos courtesy of Toms Creek Farm & Nursery in Farmer, North Carolina Ornamental Characteristics Category Perennial, Ornamental Grass Environmental Characteristics
