Panicum virgatum 'Ruby Ribbons'

Ruby Ribbons Switch Grass

Zone 4

This is a sturdy, upright grass with blue-green foliage which develops wine-red tips as the season progresses. In late summer it produces clouds of diffuse pinkish-red flowerheads. When in bloom the leaves curl slightly giving the impression of red ribbons twining through the flowers. Lovely!! Best grown in full sun. Tolerant of most soil conditions. Drought tolerant once established. HEIGHT: 100-125 cm SPREAD: 70-90 cm
