Etouffee Fountain Grass is a striking ornamental grass that brings movement and texture to any garden or landscape. Known for its graceful, arching plumes, this perennial grass is a versatile and low-maintenance choice for adding visual interest and elegance to your outdoor spaces.
This fountain grass features fine, green foliage that forms a dense, clumping mound, typically reaching a mature height and width of 2-3 feet. In late summer to early fall, the plant produces fluffy, bottlebrush-like flower spikes that rise above the foliage, creating a beautiful fountain-like effect. The blooms start as a soft, creamy hue and gradually mature to a warm, golden tan, providing extended visual appeal through the fall season.
Etouffee Fountain Grass thrives in full sun but can tolerate light shade. It prefers well-drained soil and is drought-tolerant once established, making it an excellent choice for low-water gardens or xeriscaping. This grass is also resistant to pests and diseases, ensuring it remains a reliable and attractive feature in your landscape.
