Panicum virgatum ‘Shenandoah’ is a native switchgrass prized for its upright habit, early red coloring, and fine-textured foliage. Growing 3 to 4 feet tall and about 2 feet wide, it starts green in spring and develops rich wine-red tones by mid-summer, intensifying into fall. Airy flower panicles appear in late summer, adding movement and softness. Shenandoah is drought tolerant, low maintenance, and thrives in full sun, making it a standout in naturalistic gardens, mass plantings, and modern designs.
