Molinia caerulea 'Edith Dudszus'
Highly prized for its characteristic purplish seedheads and slender, upright, arching habit, Molinia caerulea ‘Edith Dudszus’ is nearly the perfect ornamental grass for almost any garden situation. From black walnut trees to deer and mild salt spray, ‘Edith Dudszus’ Purple Moor Grass thrives, producing loose purple panicle inflorescences atop blackish-purple stems in September before the foliage gives way to a rich golden-orange in late autumn. Self-maintained clumps of airy seedheads persist throughout the winter, providing textural interest to the perennial border with average to wet soils. Versatile in habit, Molinia caerulea ‘Edith Dudszus’ can be used in virtually any landscape situation from naturalistic meadow plantings to coiffed specimen gardens, promising year round interest from season to season.
