Panicum elegans QIS Sprinkles

Panicum elegans QIS Sprinkles

Panicum elegans Sprinkles is one of my favourite grasses to grow. It is easy to grow, excellent for cut flower arrangements, as a filler in bouquets. It dries really well . As I type this I am looking out the window at it in the winter garden where I am leaving some of it to overwinter. It has turned a white in the frost and is magical to look at as well as providing cover for birds.

Germination Instructions: Sow in a greenhouse/indoors in spring. Surface sow onto moist, well-drained seed compost, cover with a sprinkling of soil. Germination takes 1 week at a temp of 15 degrees. Transplant seedlings in small clumps to individual trays or pots and grow on. Harden off and plant out after danger of frost has passed.

Growing Instructions Prefers any  fertile, well-drained soil in full sun. Easy to care for.

Cultivation Instructions Cut regularly, I find it works in bouquets at different stages as does drying.

Sow: Feb to May
