Northwind Switch Grass

Northwind Switch Grass

Northwind Switch Grass is a tall, clump-forming perennial grass known for its striking blue-green foliage that turns golden in the fall. It produces airy flower panicles that sway gracefully in the breeze, adding movement and interest to the landscape.

Taking care of your Northwind Switch Grass

Northwind Switch Grass thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, it is drought-tolerant once established, water sparingly, especially during dry spells. Apply a balanced fertilizer in spring to promote healthy growth. Prune down in late winter or early spring to encourage new growth, and be mindful of any leaf spots by ensuring proper spacing for air circulation.

Use a balanced fertilizer once in early spring
