Sweet, petite, and darling little Piglet Fountain Grass (Pennisetum alopecuroides 'Piglet') is a new fountain grass that is perfectly sized for any garden or container gardener! It's half the size of Dwarf Fountain Grass and much more floriferous than Little Bunny Pennisetum, and looks just as cute as can be!

Forming a 1-2 foot tall and wide ball of spiky green, ultra-slender foliage, Piglet is a warm-season grass and may take a bit of time before it emerges in the spring, but once the temperatures are warmer, it jumps out of the ground into a shower of spiky green. As it grows, the older outer blades fan out to the ground to create a lovely ball of texture that is barely knee-high. Late summer also brings the pinkish-white plumes that become spine-looking but soft, creamy white bottlebrushes until fall!
