Product Description

Muhlenbergia ‘White Cloud’ – White Cloud Muhly Grass is a striking native ornamental grass known for its airy, delicate white plumes that emerge in late summer to fall. Similar to its pink counterpart (Muhlenbergia capillaris), this low-maintenance, drought-tolerant perennial provides soft, billowy texture and movement to garden spaces. Its narrow, upright clumps of fine green foliage remain attractive throughout the growing season, transitioning to golden tones in fall. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soils, White Cloud Muhly Grass is an excellent choice for mass plantings, borders, erosion control, and modern landscapes. Deer-resistant and pollinator-friendly, this elegant grass is perfect for low-water gardens and naturalized landscapes.
