White Muhly Grass

An easygoing perennial in terms of both care and personality

White Muhly Grass creates a lighthearted late-season display with wispy, white blossoms that look like tufts of cotton. Planted en masse or alone, it brings a feathery texture to borders, cottage gardens, and containers. Even in winter, the dried-out plumes add visual interest—as well as seed for songbirds and small mammals.

Though it looks delicate, this tough, deer-resistant perennial can handle just about anything you throw at it. Hot, sunny spot? Poor soil? Dry climate? Humid climate? White Muhly will thrive in them all.
