Native Prairie Grass with Extraordinary Color
Displaying some of the most unique hues found in nature, Shenandoah Switch Grass is a versatile, easy to grow ornamental grass. Its long, fast-growing green leaves form in compact, dense clumps, and take on red tones by early summer. The foliage is topped with finely-textured reddish-pink racemes, which provide a bounty of seeds for birds during the colder months.
The arrival of fall brings vivid shades of purple, orange, and burgundy, with color that remains through the winter. A warm season grower, Shenandoah loves the sun and requires little water. Tolerant of a wide range of soils, this deciduous, perennial grass is unappealing to deer.
Low-maintenance and adaptable, Shenandoah is prized for its ability to add color, texture, and movement to any landscape. This easygoing grass blends seamlessly into native gardens, along borders, near waterways, or when used for mass plantings to rows. Order yours today!

Dogs like it too. . .
We love the decorative grass. It arrived in good condition, was easy to plant and is doing well, other than the few our dog dug up and ate. Who knew a dog would eat decorative grass. . . We'll have to get a few more to replace the ones we lost.
