Pink Muhly Grass

About this plant

Pink Muhly Grass (Muhlenbergia capillaris) is a showstopping ornamental grass revered for its cloud-like masses of delicate, feathery pink to reddish-pink flowers that emerge in late summer and persist into fall. This perennial grass forms a graceful, fine-textured mound of blue-green foliage, reaching its peak visual impact when its vibrant inflorescences catch the light, creating an ethereal haze of color that dances in the breeze. An excellent choice for mass plantings, borders, or as a focal point, Pink Muhly Grass provides year-round interest, with its foliage turning an attractive bronze in winter. Its drought tolerance, low maintenance, and adaptability make it a favorite for gardeners seeking beauty without fuss. Plant it in groups for a truly spectacular, impactful display.

Care & maintenance

Pink Muhly Grass is a remarkably low-maintenance plant. It requires minimal pruning; simply cut back dead foliage in late winter or early spring before new growth emerges. Division can be done every few years to rejuvenate clumps if desired.
