Coastal Muhly Grass

Coastal Muhly Grass is a perennial clump-forming grass that has slender soft green leaves growing 2 to 3 feet tall. In late summer and fall it flowers, looking like a beautiful cloud of purplish-pink has descended on your garden. This stunning grass is very easy to grow and considered by many to be the most beautiful of all the ornamental grasses. It is native to America and can be grown in xeric plantings and natural areas. Mass-plant it in your beds or line a path with it. Plant on slopes or banks, in your garden or at a beach cottage.

• Shimmering cloud of pink-purple floats over your beds
• Non-invasive clump forming grass with slender leaves
• Very drought and salt tolerant for dry places and coastal gardens
• Easy to grow even in poor and sandy soils
• Perfect for mass-planting and low-maintenance

Coastal Muhly Grass grows in all warmer zones in well-drained soil, including sandy areas. Once established it is very drought resistant and needs no attention to thrive and be beautiful. Cut back in late fall or late winter to about 4 inches for neatness, and that is it. Avoid wet areas and overcrowding – dryness and good air-circulation will keep it healthy and happy.
