The rigid stems of emerald green foliage stand proud and tall, taking on burgundy tones from late summer, before turning gold in autumn. This seasonal change is very ornamental and versatile to a range of garden designs.

The feathery, fawn awns open above the leaves and last for months, standing tall to create winter interest.

Panicum ‘Anvil’ is lovely planted in swathes, as a part of cottage borders, along fence lines or even in xeriscapes. Panicum grasses are easy to grow and care for. They will tough out poor soils and don’t mind the dry once they have established.

Panicums don’t need to be divided as regularly as Miscanthus grasses – they are one of those plants that get better with age. You can cut them back late autumn/early winter or leave the bronze foliage to stand for winter interest and cut back in late winter, before the new spring foliage shoots.

Panicum virgatum are commonly known as Switch Grass.
