Red Head Fountain Grass
Pennisetum alopecuroides 'Red Head'
Red Head Fountain Grass is a striking ornamental grass known for its showy, smoky-red flower plumes that appear in late summer and last well into fall. The graceful, arching foliage forms a neat, rounded mound that adds texture and movement to the landscape. As the season progresses, the blooms fade to a soft tan, providing long-lasting visual interest. Drought-tolerant and low-maintenance once established, this versatile grass looks beautiful in borders, mass plantings, and mixed garden beds. It also makes an excellent cut or dried flower accent.
