pennisetum burgundy bunny

Description

Pennisetum alopecuroides ‘Burgundy Bunny’ is a compact ornamental grass that brings vibrant colour and texture to gardens. This miniature fountain grass forms dense clumps of gracefully arching, linear leaves that start bright green in summer and gradually transition to a striking red, becoming fully burgundy by Autumn. In mid-to-late summer, it produces silvery-white flower spikes resembling small foxtails, which arch outward and add a dramatic touch, especially when backlit. Thriving in full sun and tolerating part shade, it prefers well-drained soil and is drought-resistant once established. Ideal for borders, containers, and water-side plantings, ‘Burgundy Bunny’ is a low-maintenance choice that provides year-round visual interest
