Panicum virgatum 'Squaw'
Panicum 'Squaw' is a striking ornamental grass with upright green foliage that develops rich red and burgundy tones as the season progresses. Its changing colour brings warmth and depth to borders from late summer into autumn.
In late summer, airy panicles of pink-tinged flowers rise above the foliage, creating a soft, shimmering effect in the garden. Easy to grow and versatile, it is ideal for borders, prairie planting, and naturalistic schemes, thriving best in full sun.
