Garden Goods Direct Perennials Pink Muhly Grass

Pink Muhly Grass (Muhlenbergia capillaris), also known as Hairawn Muhly, is the perfect ornamental grass for any season. With cloud-like pink plumes, it’s sure to brighten up your landscape well into the fall season. Native to much of the Southeastern United States, extending deep into Texas and Kansas, and thriving as far north as Massachusetts, it’s an ideal choice for low-water landscapes.

Pink Muhly Grass is a relatively carefree landscape plant. At planting and on high heat days, it appreciates supplemental watering. Aside from that, no supplemental nutrition or hydration is needed once established. The feathery and cloud-like blooms of the Hairawn Muhly grow during the fall season. With pink or purplish-red blooms maturing from the bottom up, the seed stalks range from two to five feet tall.

Being such a hearty and gorgeous grass, this landscape savior will thrive where nothing else seems to grow – tolerant of heat and well adaptive to all soil types, as long as it receives proper drainage. This long-blooming perennial continues to look wonderful in the winter and maintains its shape while dormant.
