Set yourself up for a scene of dreams with beguiling Pennisetum 'Fairy Tails'. This soothing fountain grass is truly enchanting with its gently waving tall stems topped with fluffy, silvery tail-like flowers. It's a naturally beautiful ornamental grass and works like a charm in a mixed planting scheme—flowers breaking out in summer with the captivating semi-translucency of a magical mist, and transforming a static display into one which whirls and wafts.

This half-hardy perennial ornamental grass is best suited to areas with mild winters and coastal gardens with sandy, free-draining soil. It’s most at home in a sunny border and copes well with dry conditions. Pennisetum orientale 'Fairy Tails' introduces a soft haze among colourful herbaceous perennials, and also combines beautifully with other ornamental grasses like Stipa gigantea or Miscanthus. Enjoy the flowers right through autumn, then cut it back for winter. When protected from harsh winter weather, each year Pennisetum 'Fairy Tails' will grow back and do it all again!
