DESCRIPTION

Red Head Fountain Grass (Pennisetum advena Redhead) is a marvelous ornamental grass for smaller gardens, but also looks fabulous as a mass planting. The upright, green foliage arches twoards its tips and is is topped by deepest purple, cat-tail like plumes, creating a magnificent contrast with the leaves. But the show's not over yet! In fall, the foliage turns to gold and the plumes ripen to a rich, wheat color. It also blooms a little earlier in the fall than most ornamental grasses and maintains its form through the winter.

SHIPPING DETAILS

Shipping Methods

Orders will be shipped via FedEx Home Delivery.

Orders are generally in route for 2-5 business days (depending on where you live).

We are sticklers about packaging and shipping your order in a way that guarantees healthy plants upon arrival. If plants are damaged on arrival, just let us know and we'll send you new ones or offer a full refund.

All of our plants are container grown and shipped with the soil and roots fully intact. We DO NOT ship your plants bare-root. Being shipped as a containered plant greatly reduces the risk of the plant not surviving the transit to your home.

So fr so good

The plants arrived in good condition, although were a bit of a challenge to cut out of the pots they arrived in. It's been hot and dry this summer, and after three weeks (and constant watering) this grass is holding up. Can't wait to see what it looks like next year!

Red Head Fountain Grass

Fantastic

Red Head Fountain Grass

Plant came quickly and was moist and green. I planted it 2 days later with the root fertilizer and can say now that it is doing well and showing quite a bit of growth. I do feel like the price was a bit on the high side for this size and type of perennial. That’s the reason for 4 stars instead of 5 stars.
