Fountain Grass Seeds - Alopecuroides

Fountain Grass (Pennisetum Alopecuroides) Is one of the most popular ornamental grasses. Fountain Grass seeds are easy to grow, and this variety produces a 32-inch tall mound of narrow green foliage. In the late summer bottle, brush-like plumes of pale brown appear.

A mass grouping of these ornamental grasses is very striking. The plumes of Pennisetum alopecuroides Fountain Grass make excellent cut flowers and can be preserved.

Happy son

The seeds were a Christmas gift for my Farmer / Gardener son. I gave him the seeds today and his face lit up. We both can't wait to see how they grow!

Haven't received as of yet.

Question

how long does it take to grow

Not planting yet...Survey is to soon

I do not have an indoor garden so I am waiting until spring to plant. I will try planting closer to Feb or March in small pods watering with spray bottle, and slowly introduce the plants to outdoor conditions.
