Product details
Panicum virgatum 'Squaw' (Switch Grass) is an ornamental grass with an upright growth habit. The leaves are green with a red tint that turns bright red in the fall. From July to September, the ornamental grass blooms with beautiful pinkish flower spikes that turn straw-colored in late autumn. Panicum thrives well as a solitary plant but is best in groups. Panicum 'Squaw' is quite winter hardy and remains green until late winter.
Care: Panicum virgatum 'Squaw' (Switch Grass) prefers a sunny location. It thrives in any soil that is not too wet, but prefers dry to moist, slightly acidic soils. During dry seasons, it is important to water the plant adequately. It is advisable to cut the plant back every year in March to 10-20 cm above the ground. This keeps the ornamental grass healthy, and you will soon see new shoots.
Size: At the time of delivery, the plants have a height of 40-60 cm, measured with the nursery pot. The plants are delivered in a nursery pot with a diameter of 23 cm.
