Panicum virgatum | The Enduring Gardener

Fountain Grass
16th December 2011 • In The Garden • Stephanie Donaldson

I know that it is Pennisetum that is commonly known as Fountain Grass but at this time of year the Panicum in the front border mounts a convincing challenge for the title. It will look like this for several weeks until really harsh weather finally causes it to collapse. In the meantime it’s a fountain of grass as far as I’m concerned.
