Panicum virgatum 'Gunsmoke' - Switchgrass from Pleasant Run Nursery

Panicum virgatum 'Gunsmoke' PP32373

Switchgrass

‘Gunsmoke’ Switchgrass is a midsize Panicum with bluish green foliage topped by airy tan seedheads in late summer and fall. Panicum virgatum ‘Gunsmoke’ is sturdy enough to be upright through the winter, with lovely tan foliage that moves attractively in breezy conditions. The seeds feed wildlife in fall and winter, and small grassland birds depend on Switchgrasses for protective cover in winter. An introduction by Walters Gardens.
