About this plant

Standing majestically, 'Cloud Nine' Switch Grass creates a dramatic statement with its upright, steel-blue foliage that transforms into a brilliant golden-yellow in the autumn. This native cultivar produces delicate, cloud-like panicles of tan flowers in late summer, adding a soft, feathery texture to your garden. Ideal for naturalistic plantings, privacy screens, or as a striking focal point, 'Cloud Nine' offers year-round beauty and exceptional hardiness. Its architectural form remains attractive even through winter, providing interest and structure to the dormant landscape. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, 'Cloud Nine' is an ecological powerhouse, providing shelter and sustenance for local wildlife and contributing to a healthy ecosystem.

Care & maintenance

Easily grown in a variety of soils, 'Cloud Nine' thrives with minimal maintenance. Cut back dead foliage in late winter or early spring before new growth emerges. No serious insect or disease problems.
