PURPLE LOVE GRASS (Eragrostis spectabilis)

bloom Jul-Sep | height 1-2’ | full-sun

This is a fantastic short little grass. The broad foliage reminds one of switchgrass (Panicum), but when the seed heads emerge and ripen it becomes something all its own. Like a mist of purple haze, this plant resembles a fog that has just rolled in. 

Mix it with Rudbeckia fulgida var. speciosa for a truly unique and whimsical planting.
