Description
Fairy Tales Fountain Grass, Pennisetum 'Fairy Tales', is a spring blooming ornamental with large wheat colored plumes. The lovely blue green foliage is clump forming and extends into graceful arches. Its size stays somewhat compact for a grass, making it ideal for container and mass plantings, as well as for rock gardens and anywhere you need a nice accent in the landscape. Other than requiring full sun, Pennisetum 'Fairy Tales' is low maintenance and very adaptable to a wide variety of soil conditions.
