Cassian Fountain Pennisetum Grass

$39.99

This dwarf Pennisetum fountain grass works well in tight, small spaces. It is similar in appearance to  ‘Hameln’, but ‘Cassian’ is a foot taller at maturity. It produces cream-pink tinted bottle brush blooms in July through September. In late September & October, Cassian appears red. This is a selected variety of a species not originally from North America. Cassian Dwarf Fountain Grass is a fine choice for the garden, but it is also a good selection for planting in outdoor pots and containers

Care

Cassian is very adaptable to both dry and moist growing conditions, but will not tolerate any standing water. It is considered to be drought-tolerant, and thus makes an ideal choice for a low-water garden.. It is not particular as to soil type.

 Growth Habit

A fine textured dwarf fountain grass suitable for smaller areas (both 24-30" tall and wide at maturity); bright green foliage turns orange-red in fall. Blooms are large bottle brush like plumes of pale pink that persist until winter; beautiful as a rock garden accent or massed in borders

 Toxicity

Cassian is deer and rabbit resistant. Fountain grasses are considered nontoxic to pets and add height and beautiful blooms to flower gardens.
