Description
Muhlenbergia capillaris, commonly known as pink muhly grass, is a striking ornamental grass prized for its airy, cotton-candy-like pink plumes that appear in late summer and persist through autumn. These feathery blooms create a stunning visual effect, especially when swaying in the breeze. Its fine, green foliage forms graceful clumps, adding texture and movement to gardens and landscapes.
This low-maintenance, drought-tolerant plant thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it an excellent choice for dry or sandy areas. It typically grows to around 90 cm in height and spreads up to 75 cm, forming elegant mounds that complement borders, rock gardens, and mass plantings.
Muhlenbergia capillaris requires minimal care—occasional watering during prolonged dry periods and a light trim in late winter help maintain its shape and encourage fresh growth. It is deer-resistant, attracts pollinators, and adapts well to urban environments. With its stunning pink plumes and easy care, pink muhly grass adds a breathtaking touch to any landscape.
