More Information

Description 'Little Bunny' Fountain Grass (Pennisetum alopecuroides) has everything you love about fountain grass, but in a compact habit! Dark green foliage forms a dense clump of arching leaves. Its green fountain of foliage transitions to a rich gold hue in fall and continues to add lovely texture well into winter, making this grass a multi-season stunner. By midsummer, creamy white flower spikes accompany the foliage, making excellent cut flowers! It loves full sun and readily tolerates drought, as well as occasionally wet soil. Plus, it's low maintenance and resists damage from deer and rabbits, too, making it perfect for gardeners of any skill level. Details How To Grow

Grasses

Fountain grass and switch grass both look great and are starting to grow. Can’t wait to see them full grown.

Planted early

We planted these ornamental grasses very early in the season and we covered them up on frosty nights. They are doing well.

Plants arrived promptly and were in excellent condition. Post planting they are doing well, including flowering. Highly recommend. Will purchase from Great Garden Plants again!

Disappointed

The plants, at arrival, were fine. All but one have since died. I've been vigilant about watering (we're having a hot, dry spell in NC) and all of the other grasses planted in the same area are fine.
