Blue Switch Grass

Stunning reddish purple flower plumes crown fountain-like, powdery blue foliage. This Texan native is great for adding movement in to the garden and the blue foliage takes on copper highlights in autumn. Best planted in moderately fertile, well-drained soil, it makes a lovely feature for a small sunny border.Position: full sunSoil: moderately fertile, well-drained soilRate of growth: average Flowering period: August and September Flower colour: purple-greenOther features: striking autumn colourHardiness: fully hardyGarden care: Lift and divide congested colonies between mid-spring and summerGoes well with: Allium sphaerocephalon, Monarda 'Aquarius', Sedum 'Herbstfreude', Achillea millefolium 'Cerise Queen', Stipa tenuissima, Verbena bonariensis
