Prairie Winds® 'Candy Floss' Pink Muhly Grass

Prairie Winds® 'Candy Floss' Pink Muhly Grass creates a spectacular fall display with clouds of deep rose-pink flower plumes floating above fine-textured green foliage. This early-blooming selection brings its signature color to the landscape sooner, creating an airy, almost weightless effect as the plumes move gently in the breeze.

Growing 36–42 inches tall and spreading 44–48 inches wide, 'Candy Floss' develops into a substantial upright clump with a uniform habit. Its graceful foliage provides texture throughout the growing season before the brilliant pink plumes take center stage in fall. Plant it as a dramatic specimen or in groups for an impressive sweep of color and movement.

Native to North America, this easy-care ornamental grass thrives in full sun and is both heat and drought tolerant. With low water needs and resistance to deer and rabbits, 'Candy Floss' is a durable choice for adding distinctive color, texture, and fall interest to sunny landscapes.
