The Red Head Fountain Grass, scientifically known as Pennisetum alopecuroides 'Red Head,' is an ornamental grass celebrated for its large, reddish-brown flower plumes that emerge in late summer and persist into fall. This fountain grass variety adds rich color and texture to your garden, borders, or as a focal point. Thrives in full sun and provides seasonal interest.
Red Head Fountain Grass thrives in well-drained soil and full sun. It benefits from regular watering, especially during dry spells. In late winter or early spring, cut back the previous year's growth to a few inches above the ground to encourage new growth. This grass produces stunning red-purple plumes that add vibrancy to gardens.

Planting trees or plants is easy! First, begin by digging a hole that's twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep. Place the tree or plant in the hole and add some bonemeal fertilizer. Backfill with fresh soil if needed and water thoroughly. Water regularly until roots are established to keep the plant healthy. Enjoy your new tree or plant!
