Pink Muhly Grass (Muhlenbergia Capillaris)
Zones: 5 – 9
Light: Full Sun
Bloom Time: Late Summer to Fall
Height: 3′ to 4′
Spread: 3′ to 4′
As you may have guessed from its name, Pink Muhly grass is known for its airy pink plumes that appear in late summer.
This native ornamental grass is deer-resistant, heat-tolerant and will survive in dry conditions once it is established.
So if you’re looking for a low maintenance plant that loves the sun, this is a great option for your garden.
It’s also not as big or as invasive as some of the other ornamental grasses, which makes it a great border plant.
