A fresh take on Pink Muhly Grass, 'Candy Floss' stands out with its earlier bloom time - flowering in mid-September, almost a month ahead of typical selections. Its deep rose-pink plumes float above fine-textured foliage, creating a soft, airy effect that adds movement and color to the fall landscape. Developed in Michigan, this clone exhibits good overwintering performance for our area compared to standard forms.
Unlike seed-grown varieties that can vary in habit and color, 'Candy Floss' is propagated through tissue culture, ensuring uniformity and consistency in every plant. Its dark flower color and reliable performance make it a superior choice for designers and growers alike.
Perfect for mass plantings, borders, or modern landscapes, this hardy selection brings refined texture and early-season impact to sunny, well-drained sites.
