Notably wide for a Panicum, 'Niagara Falls' is excellent for filling space in the landscape. This native ornamental grass appears like a Miscanthus in the landscape with arching foliage but adds the powder blue color characteristic of Switch Grass. In fall, sprays of cream seed heads pack the top of the plant. It is both salt and drought tolerant and resists deer.
- 4 feet tall and wide at maturity
- Hardy in zones 4-9, be sure to check your USDA zone to ensure success
- Full sun (6+ hours) required
Our perennial plants are entering their natural dormancy phase. As part of this process, foliage and blooms are browning and dying back—this is completely normal! We give the plants a hard trim in our greenhouse to support them as they conserve energy for the next growing season. Rest assured, your perennials will wake up and thrive again when it's time in your growing zone. Dormancy is how they prepare for a healthy, vibrant comeback as the seasons change!
Care: Fertilize with Proven Winners Continuous Release Plant Food in spring and mid-summer. Cut back in spring before new growth appears.
