More Information About Arrhenatherum

Arrhenatherum is a small genus of grasses, a few of which are useful in perennial gardens. Being a mid-sized ornamental grass means that Arrhenatherum is perfect for mixed plantings and container plantings. Similar in appearance to Panicum, Arrhenatherum features 1/4" wide leaves up to 2' tall with a bluish tint that looks great near Chrysanthemum, Euphorbia, Paeonia, Rudbeckia, and Hosta. Although Arrhenatherum flowers do look like oats, they are small and have an insignificant visual impact.

Arrhenatherum prefers a moist site with a bit of shade, but it is tolerant of a wide range of habitats and is drought-tolerant once established. That combined with its smallish size make Arrhenatherum a great choice for rock gardens and groundcover plantings. Arrhenatherum prefers the cooler summers of the north so if it starts to look a little rough I mid-summer, simply shear it back and allow fresh new growth to replace the tired old growth.
