Bamboo Muhly is a semi-evergreen ornamental grass that forms dense upright clumps of delicate looking bamboo-like foliage. The wispy flowers give the foliage a pale pink-green cast in fall and winter. Best color in full sun and moist well-drained soil. Bamboo Muhly has high disease resistance and great drought tolerance.
