Muhlenbergia capillaris, commonly known as Pink Muhly Grass, is a native warm-season grass prized for its fine-textured green foliage and spectacular pinkish-purple plumes that emerge in late summer to fall. Growing 3 to 4 feet tall and wide, it adds graceful movement and a fluffy, colorful haze to landscapes. This grass thrives in full sun and well-drained soils and is drought tolerant once established. Pink Muhly Grass is perfect for naturalistic gardens, borders, and mass plantings that benefit from seasonal color and texture.
