A sweet mist of raspberry pink inflorescences parade atop the slender blue-green foliage of Muhlenbergia capillaries providing late summer and fall color. This ornamental grass has a soft flowing texture, and shakes up the fall garden with its vibrant reddish-pink color. Muhlenbergia capillaris makes a stunning visual display when mass planted.
The genus Muhlenbergia is in honor of the famous botanist Gotthilf Heinrich Ernst Muhlenberg; the species capillaris, describes its slender, hair-like foliage. Do not let Pink Muhly Grass’s soft appearance fool you, because this grass is Texas tough. Plant this sweet treat in your garden this fall!
