Panicum virgatum 'Northwind'

Northwind Switch Grass (Panicum virgatum) is one of the most upright and structurally strong ornamental grasses available. Its olive-green foliage forms a tight vertical clump that holds its shape all season without flopping.

Growing 4–6 feet tall, Northwind adds height and clean lines to the landscape, making it ideal for privacy plantings and modern designs. In late summer, airy flower plumes emerge, followed by rich golden fall color for multi-season interest.

Best Uses: privacy screening, vertical accents, mass plantings, modern landscapes

Why Choose Northwind Switch Grass:
– Exceptionally upright, non-flopping habit
– Strong vertical structure for clean design
– Drought tolerant and low maintenance
– Excellent winter interest

Ideal for homeowners who want height, structure, and reliability without constant upkeep.

Why Add Ornamental Grasses to Your Landscape?

  • Low Maintenance Performance: Most ornamental grasses require minimal pruning and thrive with little upkeep once established.
  • Movement & Texture: Flowing blades and feathery plumes create dynamic visual interest that changes with light and wind.
  • Four-Season Appeal: From summer greenery to fall plumes and winter structure, grasses provide year-round landscape impact.
