HOT ROD SWITCH GRASS

This native switch grass is a compact, drought and salt tolerant clumping grass that has upright blue-green foliage that develops burgundy tips early. It produces showy seed heads that provide winter interest. It thrives in full to part sun and needs added moisture in extreme heat. It is great for erosion control, wet areas and mass plantings.

Planting Tips ⓘ

To help Panicum virgatum types settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in full sun in average, well-draining soil. It is incredibly adaptable, tolerating a wide range of soil conditions, including heavy clay and periodic wetness, and it becomes quite drought-tolerant once its extensive root system is established. Avoid over-fertilizing, as excess nutrients can cause the stems to become weak and prone to flopping. Cut the foliage back to the ground in late winter or early spring to prepare for a fresh season of growth.
