Best of 2014: ‘Blood Brothers’ Panicum

‘Blood Brothers’ is a new switchgrass introduction featuring wine red coloration.  Emerging a pretty blue-green in the spring, as summer comes and progresses, the tips will turn a vibrant blood red. The color only gets richer and more saturated as autumn marches on. The sprays of small reddish flowers will become seed heads by late fall. ‘Blood Brothers’ also likes full sun and will grow to be 4-5’ tall, with an upright vase like shape.
