Plant description

Add long-season structure and striking foliage colour to a sunny border with this elegant ornamental grass.

Muhlenbergia lindheimeri forms a fountain-like clump of fine, blue-grey foliage, with upright stems carrying silvery flower spikes in long, warm summers. Its neat shape and subtle colouring work well alongside colourful perennials and other drought-tolerant plants, particularly in gravel gardens and hot, sheltered spots.

Native to Texas and northern Mexico, it thrives in free-draining soil and a sheltered position, but can struggle in colder UK gardens, especially where winter ground conditions are wet, so ensure good drainage.

How to care for Muhlenbergia lindheimeri:

Muhlenbergia is a perennial grass that grows best in a hot, dry, sunny spot in the garden where the soil is well drained. Once established the plant is drought tolerant and requires good drainage.

It is low maintenance but trim back spent flower stems in spring, and divide with a spade in the spring to create new clumps once the plants are several years old.
