PENNISETUM ALO HAMELN
Grower Notes:
Pennisetum alo. 'Hameln' (Dwarf Fountain Grass) is a top choice for gardeners seeking an elegant yet low-maintenance ornamental grass. This short, compact perennial forms a graceful, fountain-like mound of arching, narrow, green foliage that provides beautiful texture all season long.
In late summer, it produces a showy display of fuzzy, silvery-white to beige flower plumes, which rise above the foliage and shimmer in the sunlight. Fall brings lovely golden-yellow, and the plumes persist, offering excellent winter interest. Easy to care for and thrives in full sun. It prefers fairly dry soils and is drought tolerance once it is established. Deer resistant.
