Pennisetum alopecuriodes ‘Piglet”

Description

Pennisetum alopecuroides ‘Piglet’, commonly known as Fountain Grass ‘Piglet’, is a compact and ornamental variety of fountain grass with soft, arching green foliage and striking, fluffy flower plumes. This smaller cultivar typically grows to about 2 to 3 feet tall, making it ideal for smaller gardens, containers, or as an accent plant. In late summer to fall, ‘Piglet’ produces airy, silvery-pink flower spikes that gradually mature to a light tan, adding texture and visual interest. The plant’s fine foliage creates a gentle, flowing effect, and it turns a golden color in the fall. ‘Piglet’ thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it a low-maintenance, drought-tolerant choice for enhancing landscapes with its vibrant blooms and graceful form.
