Deschampsia cespitosa 'Pixie Fountain'

Deschampsia cespitosa 'Pixie Fountain' is a graceful ornamental grass known for its delicate, airy flower heads that appear in late summer and persist into the fall. The fine-textured, arching green foliage creates a soft, fountain-like effect, making it an ideal choice for naturalistic gardens or as an accent plant in mixed borders. Its flowers, initially green, turn golden as they mature, adding seasonal interest.

Originating from temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere, this variety is a compact form of the species commonly known as tufted hairgrass. It blooms in late summer, with feathery, light golden panicles emerging from slender stems that contrast beautifully with the plant's mounding base. 'Pixie Fountain' maintains a tidy and well-formed shape, with an elegant, cascading growth habit that enhances garden textures throughout the seasons.
