PANICUM virg. Sangria

<h2>PANICUM virg. Sangria</h2> <p>An upright, clump-forming switchgrass, Panicum virgatum Sangria brings fine texture and strong vertical lines to sunny borders. Narrow green leaves make a tidy tuft, topped in late summer by airy, purplish flower panicles that persist into autumn and provide long-lasting structure. Reliable and low-maintenance, it suits prairie-style and mixed plantings, thriving in moist but well-drained, moderately fertile soil in full sun; leave the stems over winter for interest and cut back in early spring. Typically reaches around 11.5m tall at maturity.</p> <strong>Position:</strong> <span>Full sun</span> <strong>Rate of Growth:</strong> <span>Moderate</span> <strong>Soil:</strong> <span>Moist but well-drained, moderately fertile soil</span> <strong>Hardiness:</strong> <span>Fully hardy</span> <strong>Jan</strong> <strong>Feb</strong> <strong>Mar</strong> <strong>Apr</strong> <strong>May</strong> <strong>Jun</strong
