Cape Breeze Switch Grass
Cape Breeze Switch Grass (Panicum virgatum 'Cape Breeze') is a cultivar known for its ornamental appeal and hardiness. This native grass, originating from North America, exhibits graceful arching blades that shift in color throughout the seasons. The foliage starts with a blue-green hue in the spring, transitioning to shades of red and burgundy in the fall, providing captivating visual interest. The airy flower panicles rise above the foliage during summer, bearing a light, ethereal quality. Cape Breeze Switch Grass typically grows to a height of about four to five feet, forming clumps that can spread over time. Its adaptability to various soil types and moisture levels makes it a versatile choice for landscape designs, including prairie-style plantings, naturalized areas, or mixed perennial beds. Moreover, its ability to sway elegantly in the breeze adds dynamic movement to garden landscapes, making it a favored selection among gardeners.
