    Many of our native grasses make great ornamentals, and Purple Lovegrass (Eragrostis spectabilis) is one of these. Aptly named, you'll love the cloud of purple that appears above the tuft of green leaves in midsummer. And this plant is tough. Plant it in just about any soil, subject it to dry conditions, and it'll still perform. Use it in rockeries, plant it in a natural-looking garden, or use it as an interesting element in low-maintenance gardens. It's also great for planting on slopes, in retaining walls and as a smart way to control soil erosion.

    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 far so good

    They have been planted for a few weeks and starting to grow more. Have to say they are healthy. Can update later when they have grown larger .
