Muhlenbergia dumosa
Bamboo Muhly is a clumping grass from Southern Arizona and Northern Mexico. With its tall, light, airy stems reaching 4-6 feet, it resembles delicate bamboo and showcases bright green foliage. As the late fall and winter months roll in, the tips of its foliage take on a pale pinkish-green hue, adorned with tiny flowers. Even though it spreads slowly thanks to its rhizomatous nature, it’s easy to manage. This plant loves full sun and appreciates an occasional drink of water. While it’s drought-tolerant, a bit more moisture makes it look even more lush and vibrant.

Spring Shipping:
Orders are shipped within 7-10 business days. We will email you if there are expected delays.
When you order plants from our nursery, you can expect them to arrive in the best possible condition. Our team carefully packs each order using sturdy, biodegradable packaging materials.
Your plants' appearance may vary depending on the season and their current growth stage. We may cut back the leafy growth of some plants to prepare them for shipment and transplanting.
5 Gallon and Up: Any plant purchased to ship over 5 Gallons will be shipped bare root. This means we will remove the plant from its original pot, remove the soil surrounding the roots, and wrap the roots with a biodegradable plastic bag. This reduces weight and the likelihood of damage during shipping.
Once your plants arrive, it is essential to plant them as soon as possible. This will help them rebound and thrive. If you cannot plant immediately, water regularly and keep the roots off heat-conducting surfaces.
Newly transplanted plants often require more water until their roots are well established. Plan to water them 1-3 times weekly for the first few months.
