Pink Muhly Grass
Description
Muhlenbergia capillaris, commonly known as pink muhly grass, is a stunning ornamental grass, admired for its ethereal pink plumes. The grass produces masses of airy, cloud-like flowerheads that create a breathtaking display, particularly in the fall. Its fine-textured foliage adds a delicate touch to the garden throughout the growing season. Pink muhly grass thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, tolerating a range of conditions including drought. It is well-suited for mass plantings, borders, and meadows, where it can be showcased in its full glory. The pink plumes catch the light beautifully and create a soft, romantic atmosphere. Cut back the foliage in late winter or early spring to encourage fresh growth. This resilient grass provides visual interest throughout the seasons, from its green foliage to its spectacular fall bloom.
