Description:

18-24” x 8-12” wide (seed/division propagated). Mountain Mist grass is a little known warm-season clump grass, native to the four-corner states of NM, AZ, CO and UT and typically found in scattered locations on the steep slopes of mid-elevation foothills and mountains. Arising from clumps of thin, green foliage, the showy, finely-textured flowering spikes come in mid-to-late-summer and decorate the plants for many months. Grows easily in lean, well-drained soils. A superb new ornamental grass for the xeric garden.
