White Cloud Muhly Grass
Plant Specifics
Native grasses are SO important in the landscape. They serve as anchors for the soil, their roots are hosts for beneficial fungi, and are far more aesthetic than turf or sodgrass. This cultivar of muhly is very showy - the tufts of white look so soft and billowing, like snow drifts! Highly salt tolerant!
