How To Plant & Care For Muhly Grass
Description
An absolutely showstopping source of late-season color when other flowering plants are winding down for the season, Pink Muhly Grass, commonly called “Cotton Candy Grass” or Purple Muhly Grass or by some folks, is a very tough and exceptionally easy-to-grow North American native grass immensely popular for the profuse and beautiful clouds of airy pinkish-purple flowers it produces over a long period from late summer through fall.Â
The outstanding attributes don’t stop with the flowers. Throughout the warm season, Muhly Grass forms attractive arching mounds of glossy, hair-like green leaves that provide a unique, wispy texture in the landscape which contrasts remarkably well with many other types of plants. Excellent as an accent and truly stunning in groupings or massed.Â
You might also be happy to know that Muhly Grass is very easy to grow and low maintenance. When established it is exceptionally drought tolerant, requiring little if any supplemental water. The foliage can be cut back to an inch or two above the ground in late winter before new growth begins to emerge.
Muhly Grass is our top selling ornamental grass for good reasons, and deserves a spot in every garden where it will grow!
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing in a clump 2 to 3 feet tall and 3 feet wide, Pink Muhly Grass is ideal for use as an accent in smaller garden spaces or in small to large groupings in home foundation plantings and landscape borders. Truly stunning in bloom in mass plantings on embankments, hillsides and slopes, where its roots act as a soil stabilizer for erosion control. Makes a nice centerpiece in combination container gardens and is a fine addition to seaside gardens, rock gardens, ornamental grass gardens and the Xeriscape (low water need). A lovely display for any sunny spot!
Suggested Spacing:Â 2.5 to 3 feet apart for solid borders or mass plantings; 6 feet or more apart for space between plants

How Many Plants Needed To Cover A Planting Area?
Note:Â Â For our customers who live and garden north of USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 6a, where Pink Muhly Grass is not reliably winter hardy, you’ll be happy to know it can be grown in containers that can be brought indoors during winter and placed back outside when temperatures warm up in spring.
Growing Preferences
Pink Muhly Grass is exceptionally easy to grow and maintain. It is exceptionally resistant to heat, humidity, sun, salt, and drought. Make sure to plant it in very well-drained soil. Add sand and or small gravel to the planting mix if necessary to ensure good drainage. It appreciates pampering the first year with adequate food and water to get its root system established. After this, it takes off on its own and is exceptionally drought-tolerant when established. Full sun is preferred for best flowering however the plant will tolerate and still flower with some light shade. we suggest at least 6 hours of direct sunlight for best flowering. If necessary, cut back foliage to ground in late winter before new growth begins to emerge in spring. It is also quite salt tolerant, making it an excellent choice for gardens near the sea.

I was very happy to find this pink muhly grass offered. I love grasses, especially unique ones like this. I bought 3, and they came exceptionally well packaged and already pruned down for fall planting. I gifted them and cannot wait for spring to see them grow and flourish. They will make for a lovely eye-catching color and movement amid other plantings.——————————————————–We are so glad you are pleased and we hope they enjoy them for years to come!

We planted three of the Cotton Candy Grass plants mid-April (they arrived with green grass shoots about 1 foot tall) at the top of a tiered garden mound built in front of a fence where the color will show beautifully late summer and into the fall.

Made a few purchases for our new home location, hoping to build by next fall in north east Pennsylvania, so I feel like I’ve got time to really delve into the researching of plants and plant groupings we’re interested in. With that being said, I’ve looked at literally dozens (perhaps more!) of websites, and this website is by far the most clear, concise and informative on every facet from choosing the plant (s) for my zone, for my purpose and then the beyond the purchase to planting and care of plants. It’s too soon to say how they will do beyond the planting, but the arrival time and condition of plants was wonderful. I’ll keep you posted with the outcome come next spring and summer! Would definitely do business with this company in the future for our remaining gardening needs once we get our home built and get to figuring out what we’d like to do on the property!———————————————————–Wow! We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy them for years to come! Thanks for the kind words and great review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG
Excellent delivery and a great price. While it haven’t bloomed yet (only a month) I was surprised how well the bushes did, considering its 100-105 degrees right now.

I’m not one to write reviews, but wanted to say my first time ordering plants online through Wilson Brothers was great! I emailed them with a concern about a delayed shipment (carrier issue) and they contacted me immediately! They assured me if my plants did not arrive in good condition, they would take care of it.

Due to the cold weather we continue to have, I have not been able to plant the flowers yet. What I can tell you is that all of the flowers listed below are flourishing profusely. They have more than doubled in size and a couple of them have tripled. I do hope it warms up soon as they are getting too big for the house. I am anxious to see them grow around my pond and water garden area.
The packaging you sent them in was perfect for their transport. They all looked like they had been sitting on a shelf in a greenhouse rather than being pitched around in transit. I do admit the packaging was a bit of a puzzle getting them out, but well worth the effort.
I did debate on purchasing them due to the price, but I am pleased with what you sent. Your website is awesome. It answered all my questions.—————————————————–We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come! Thanks for the kind words and great review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG

We are so thrilled that we have access to Wilson Brothers. We lived in McDonough for 18 years. I drove by your nursery every day when working at Henry County High. All of our plants came from your nursery. We retired to Myrtle Beach where everything is palm trees and palmettos. We couldn’t be happier with the tree and grasses we ordered from you. They are thriving and look great. We will definitely be repeat customers.———————————————-Happy Retirement! We are so glad you are pleased with your purchase!

These plants are so healthy, I hope they will grow in my clay soil, I can never find this type of grass anywhere near me so I jumped at the chance to buy from Wilson Bros when it became available. Packaged great, I was impressed with that, they really know how to pack the plants so there is no movement in the box. This is going to be so pretty mixed in with my wildflowers on a slight hill that gives me fits, but sedum and wildflowers will be the answer if it all grows. You can’t go wrong ordering from Wilson Bros, this was my first order with them and I have no complaints.————————————————-We are so glad you are pleased with your purchase!

Ordered two of these, both arrived in good condition. packaged very well, one slightly with more brownish grassy stems than the other, before planting I did my usual practice of resting them in their pots in the place I wished to plant them to see how they reacted, then planted and watered in.

I’d been searching for pink mulhy grass and only found at Wilson Bros. It was costly but I knew it was hard to find and it was to be a show piece in my garden.

I have been so pleased with the whole shopping experience for not only my recent purchase of the Rising Sun Redbud and pink Muhly grass but last year’s purchase of the coral twigged Japanese maple. Well packed with plenty of instructions. My coral came through a cold snowy Indiana winter with flying colors. The Rising Sun is now planted and immediately began to sprout new leaves in its new home. Our grass is also safely placed and is responding well.

I live in WA, but have ordered from Wilson Bros. several times after discovering they had some hard-to-find items not available in my area. My last order, which was Cotton Candy Grass, arrived exactly when they told me it would, and was packed perfectly.

The specimens were perfect and I’ve had nothing but good experiences in dealing with this outfit.

I have several grasses from you including the Muhlenbergia capillaris, pink muhly, which I saw on the Outer Banks, but thought I could never have. I now have 3 plus a Pennisetum alopecuroides, ‘Moudry’, and a Miscanthus ‘Morning Light’. When you have the Yellow Bird Magnolia back in stock, it will go in the middle of the triangle where the 3 white pines were cut, with grasses around. Yellow Bird is a hybrid with our native Magnolia acuminate. We had one of the cucumber trees, but it was too close to the porch and I had to have it cut about 20 years ago. I am also awaiting your restocking of The Rising Sun Redbud Tree.

This is the first time I ordered anything from Wilson Bros. I was a little sceptical as many online garden sites have been a big disappointment with poor packaging and near-death plants arriving at my door. But not Wilson Bros. The plant was very nicely packaged with enough moisture to ensure it’s life while it made the trip to my doorstep. I was so excited to put it in the ground and watch it flourish knowing that Wilson Bros. cared enough to take care of the plant until I got it. Thank you so much and I will certainly order more from you, again.

I was very pleased with the size of the plants. They were packed well. I hope they make it through the winter, because I am in zone 5b. Maybe I can cover them with something.————————————We are so glad you are pleased! They are hardy to 6A, so mulch them real good and covering them in extreme cold may help too. Beth | WBG 🙂

I’ve been shopping online for plants, vines and bushes to redo my small front yard. I ordered from other companies and had very poor results. I stumbled upon Wilson Bros looking for pink muhly grass and my gosh am I glad I found them! Their one gallon plants are larger, healthier and stronger than any other online store I’ve ordered from. The packaging of the grass was superb and they are thriving where I planted them. Customer service is quick to respond to any questions and are extremely helpful in picking companion plants. I will not be ordering from any other nursery.————————- Thanks so much for the great review!! Beth | WBG

I purchased gallon-container muhly grasses. They cost a little bit more than 3-inch container grasses from another company, but were well worth it. Each plant was approximately 1 1/2 to 2 feet high. They were carefully wrapped for mailing. Additionally, the soil and pot were carefully wrapped with material that prevented disruption and which prevented moisture evaporation. I was extremely pleased and will order again from Wilson Gardens.———————————————————Hi Bobbi, Thanks so much for taking the time to provide your review of the Pink Muhly Grass. We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy them for years to come! Thanks for the great review! 🙂

Order arrived as promised and I have the ornamental grass planted and now just wait to see how it grows. So great to find a nursery that has different varieties. —————– WBG Reply: Hi Arleen – Thanks for your review and hope you enjoy the Pink Muhly Grass for years to come. Keep in mind they prefer a well-drained soil and plenty of sun. Damp or moist soil is okay but constantly soggy soil can be problematic. When established, Muhly Grass is exceptionally drought tolerant. Let us know if there’s ever anything else we can do for you. We’re at your service. – Brent | Wilson Bros Gardens
Product arrived very fast and in great condition. Height of the Muhly grass was much taller that I was expecting for a Jr. Gallon 7″ pot so I was very Happy 🙂 Had been researching this particular type of dune grass for quite some time. Can’t wait til Fall to see them blooming. ——————– WBG Reply: Hi Gary – Thanks so much for your review of the Pink Muhly Grass plants you purchased from us and for the compliments! Hope you enjoy them for years to come. Let us know if there’s ever anything else we can do for you. We’re at your service! – Brent | Wilson Bros Gardens
THE GRASS ARRIVED WELL BUT IT IS TOO SOON TO RENDER AN OPINION ———– ——– WBG Reply: Hi Elizabeth – Glad to hear your Muhly Grass plants arrived well. They should do fine if planted right and in the right spot, which is a well-drained soil and as much sun as you can give them. You can always find plenty of helpful planting and care tips under the Planting & Care tabs on any plant page in the Wilson Bros Gardens website. That said, let us know if you have any questions or if there’s ever anything else we can help you with. We’re at your service! – Brent | Wilson Bros Gardens

This grass seems very hard to get going. Wilson Bros has provided the best that we have received from multiple growers but they are a hold your breath till they really shows signs of acclimating to new surroundings. We really like the Pink Muhly grass and need 10 more. ———- WBG Reply: Thanks for the review and definitely keep us posted as to how the Pink Muhly Grass does out there in Olalla. Let us know if there’s ever anything else we can help you with. – Brent | Wilson Bros Gardens
The delivery was as promised. All was in good shape. They are in the ground and growing. No complaints……only accolades!
All the plants came in excellent condition and were a nice size. The first order was by phone and I got Spencer. He was so nice and helpful. The next order was placed online. I could not find these plants at any of my local nurseries. Shipment was very fast and with tracking info available. Can’t wait to see these plants take off and grow. Very good experience with this company and I will definitely be placing more orders.
This was my first time ordering from Wilson Bros Gardens. Great product , fast shipping. I would certainly recommend to a friend, and will order again.
