Panicum virgatum 'Half Pint' PPAF
Late fall color of 'Half Pint'
Common Name: Switch Grass
One of the most compact Switch Grasses in our catalog with a dense, upright habit that tops out at 3' tall. Dark rosy red seedheads cover the top of the plant in fall. The compact nature of the plant lends itself to new landscape applications. It has excellent weather tolerance, allowing it to remain standing through heavy winter snows.
Switch grass gets its name from the peaceful swishing sound it makes when blowing in the wind. All parts of this grass are very sturdy, and will remain standing thru winter unless snows are heavy. This provides important cover for birds during the coldest days of winter. This grass is very versitile from a design standpoint; it is effective as a specimen, in masses, for screening, alongside ponds or streams, or even in large containers.
