I rescued 4 small pots of fireworks variety and palnted them in small raised beds. We live in Eastern WA, at 3700ft and have a short growing season with deep freezing winters. I realized after reading avout this grass that , unfortunately they can't overwinter in the ground. We have 2 high tunnels and 2 raised beds with A-frame style cold frame lids. I could find a place for them in something like that and place a fabric row cover over them for the winter.
Purple fountain grass..annual grass ..I had 3 georges grasses 2022/23....stunning grass....but it did not come back here in lower michigan..our winter was very mild..but these grasses still died off...my suggestion is to dig up and remove if you can before snow falls or temperatures drops....i just removed mine 5/5/24...what a mess....so take heed please...
Thanks for info, we have purple fountain grass outside our bedroom window and it’s calming to see it flowing in the breeze. Maybe ditch the music, it’s distracting
First time watching..i did subscribe because i love ornamental grasses and like to keep informed. BUT..the music needs to go...not necessary and really distracts from hearing you .
as much as I love your videos and all your knowledge, the music constantly going while your talking is making it hard for me to listen and hear you. it's so awful and annoying. wish I could watch, but I can't take it!
I really think grasses have such potential as ornaments. It just looks so graceful against the wind.
Beautifully explained...got couple of ornamental grasses this year...can't wait to plant all of them in!!!
Rosy green came back for me in Michigan ..close to OHIO
Great information. I look forward to planting some on my landscape.

Травы очень красивые. У нас ещё мало выращивают такое.
Hi, does the Rubrum have to be bought inside over the winter too?
