Description:
Pennstripe™ Pennisetum is a beautiful contrasting landscape plant with feathery plumes that compliment its fine foliage nicely. It grows to 2/5 the size of its common form. NOTE: Do not get this native Australian Pennisetum alopecuroides confused with the invasive African variety (P. setaceum). The native Australian varieties have a much wider plume than the exotic variety, and are non-invasive making them a safer choice. Size: 45cm high x 45cm wide. Uses: Mass plantings and specimen planting for borders, rockeries, roadsides, commercial and residential use.
