Pennisetum alopecuroides 'Piglet' PP19074 (20)ct Flat
Common Name: Grass-Ornamental, Fountain Grass
Zone 5 to 9, Full sun
Plants reach 18 inches tall and 24 inches wide.
The perfect size fountain grass! Taller than 'Little Bunny' but shorter than 'Hameln'. 'Piglet' measures in at just about 18 inches, or knee height. It makes a fabulous tall edging and can also be grown in patio containers. In mid to late summer, full, tawny plumes cascade up and above the finely textured, green foliage.
Pennisetum prefers to be grown in rich loamy soil with good drainage and full sun or light shade. However, it will grow in rocky or sandy soil as long as it remains fairly moist. This grass resents having "wet feet."
