Panicum virgatum Fontaine
Panicum Fontaine is an elegant ornamental grass, recognisable by its airy plumes that fan out like a fountain. Plant Fontaine in the greenhouse from early spring to mid-summer for a harvest 8 to 16 weeks later. Due to excellent basal branching, you can harvest many stems per plant. With its sturdy long stems, fresh green foliage, and excellent vase life, Fontaine is very well-suited as a bouquet filler or a playful ingredient in arrangements.
