Panicum plant named ‘October Sky’

Abstract

A new and distinct plant of ornamental Switch Grass named Panicum ‘October Sky’ with blue-green, upright and arching foliage that red-purple tips and blush in early September. The upright and dense culms produce medium-height plants with airy panicles beginning greyed-green and becoming reddish-purple in September before drying in the fall to tan seed heads that are retained into winter. The new plant is useful in the landscape as a specimen, en masse, or in a container.
