Pennisetum PRAIRIE WINDS Lemon Squeeze (Fountain Grass)
PRAIRIE WINDS Lemon Squeeze brings a burst of bright color and graceful movement to the landscape. Its bold, chartreuse-green foliage stands out beautifully in full sun, forming a rounded, mounding shape that provides color and texture all season long. Reaching 33 feet tall and up to 4 feet wide, this vibrant grass adds a luminous contrast to darker plants and garden backdrops.
In early fall, soft tan seed heads rise above the foliage, adding height, motion, and seasonal interest. Whether planted as a single specimen, grouped in a mass, or featured in containers, Lemon Squeeze offers year-round appeal with minimal care. The foliage and seed heads are also excellent for fresh or dried arrangements, bringing natural texture indoors. Deer resistant and heat tolerant, this variety is a versatile favorite for modern landscapes.
