Pink Muhly Grass Care
When planting your Pink Muhly Grass choose the best location for this plant to thrive. This grass is recommended for growing zones 6 to 9. It grows and flowers best in full sun, but tolerates part shade, especially in zones 8 and 9. Muhly Grass is extremely adaptable to a variety of soil.
Water deeply about twice weekly for the first 2 to 3 months after planting. After establishing, it is extremely drought tolerant and only rarely needs water. Water thoroughly in extreme heat, especially in the first summer. Fertilize with a balanced, slow release fertilizer in spring for optimal growth. Prune back to about 4-6 inches in late winter or early spring before new growth emerges for a clean start. However, pruning is not necessary.
Pink Muhly grass is extremely hardy. It is pollution, flood, and salt tolerant as well as deer, insect and disease resistant.
