The grass dies back in winter and overwinters as a clump of roots. Old flower heads should be cut off in March. Purple fountain grass thrives in sunny locations with humus-rich, slightly moist soil. It is drought-resistant and does not tolerate over-watering. Due to its good winter hardiness and low maintenance, it is recommended for planting in urban areas and parks. It is suggested to plant 3-5 plants per square meter. In spring or autumn, cut the shoots back low.
