Panicum virgatum ‘Dallas Blues’ – Blue Switch Grass

Panicum virgatum ‘Dallas Blues’ is a striking ornamental grass valued for its broad, upright foliage with a distinctive blue-grey colouring. Forming strong, architectural clumps, it brings height, structure, and movement to the border throughout the growing season.

From late summer into autumn, airy sprays of delicate flower panicles rise above the foliage, opening with a subtle purple tint before fading to warm golden tones. The combination of blue foliage and soft flowering makes this an excellent choice for prairie-style planting, naturalistic borders, and contemporary gardens.

A reliable and long-lived grass, ‘Dallas Blues’ holds its shape well into winter, providing valuable seasonal interest and texture when many plants have died back.
