Pink Muhly Grass (Muhlenbergia capillaris)

Zone: 5 to 9

Full Sun

Height: 3′ to 5′
Okay, so this isn’t technically a flower, but I think it’s pretty enough to be included in the best plants list anyhow.

The first time I saw Pink Muhly grass* in a plant catalog, I thought they must have photo-shopped the picture. I didn’t believe that a grass could have plumes that were that pink!

Add to that…it is easy to grow, deer resistant and drought tolerant…and you have a pretty versatile plant.

So of course I had to order one…and it really does have pink plumes!
