Fountain Grass/Ornamental Grass

Question

We live in eastern Washington, and I would like to know if red fountain grass will do ok in our area? Also, how do other fountain grass and ornamental grass do in this climate?

Answer 1

Hardy red fountain grass thrives in Zone 5-9, but in cooler zones it should be treated as an annual. Your area (Zone 8) should be fine for growing this ornamental grass.
