Panicum ‘Heavy Metal’ (Heavy Metal Panic Grass)

Panicum ‘Heavy Metal’ (Heavy Metal Panic Grass) is a striking ornamental grass known for its bold, steel-blue foliage that creates a dramatic contrast in any landscape. The upright, narrow growth habit and intense colour make it a standout in garden beds, borders, and containers. As the season progresses, the leaves turn to a rich, golden hue, creating a beautiful visual transition from summer to autumn.

In late summer, Panicum ‘Heavy Metal’ produces delicate, airy flower panicles that rise above the foliage, adding texture and movement to the landscape. This grass is a fantastic choice for adding both colour and form to garden designs, as well as for erosion control or as a focal point in modern gardens. It’s also highly adaptable to different soil types and is tolerant of drought and poor soils.
