Choosing and Growing Muhly Grass Varieties in North Atlanta

Two Excellent Options

• Gulf Muhly (Muhlenbergia capillaris): 4-ft airy pink seedheads in fall. Habersham Gardens reports great success in Atlanta.
• Lindheimer's Muhly (Muhlenbergia lindheimeri): Blue-green leaves, silvery fall plumes.

Both need excellent drainage—add gritty sand. Full sun preferred.
