Fountain Grasses are about as versatile as any ornamental grass. This mound grower has finely textured, arching, rich-green leaf blades with rose/coppery-tan seed plumes or "fox tails" that appear on the tufts in August to October, then last all winter, reaching a height of 3-4'. It is used extensively for borders, in masses, as an accent or specimen plant, or incorporated in water or poolside plantings.
Sunlight Requirements: Full Sun
USDA Hardiness Zones: 5-9

We carefully schedule shipments to ensure your plants spend as little time in transit as possible. Most orders ship via UPS Monday through Wednesday, directly from our greenhouses. For nearby destinations, we may occasionally ship Thursday or Friday when delivery is expected before the weekend. Orders that would otherwise remain in transit over the weekend will be held until the following shipping week.
Each plant is carefully wrapped in protective brown paper and packed with excelsior wood wool, a biodegradable material made from thin fibers of aspen wood. This eco-friendly packaging helps keep your plants secure during transit while being kind to the environment.
