Panicum virgatum ‘Dallas Blues’ – Blue Switch Grass

• Plant now to enjoy airy purple-pink flower panicles from August to October, with peak flowering generally occurring during September.

Panicum virgatum ‘Dallas Blues’ is a striking ornamental grass forming strong, upright clumps of broad, metallic blue-green foliage. In late summer, airy flower panicles rise above the leaves, with their purple-pink colouring providing a beautiful contrast to the blue foliage.

Architectural, drought tolerant and easy to grow, ‘Dallas Blues’ is ideal for prairie planting, mixed borders, gravel gardens and naturalistic schemes. The foliage turns warm golden-yellow in autumn, while the stems and seed heads remain attractive into winter, providing valuable late-season structure and movement.
