Reaching 2½-feet-tall and wide, Tumbleweed Gold™ is the golden equivalent of Panicum Tumbleweed™. In this case with shiny golden panicles above lustrous green foliage. The earliest, and perhaps longest blooming Panicum in our line, Tumbleweed Gold™ begins in early Une and carries its seedheads into fall and winter, eventually turning a soft tan hue. Because of its early bloom season, cheerful golden panicles, round habit and modest size, Tumbleweed Gold™ is quite versatile. It can be used as a large-scale ground cover, as a casual dwarf hedge or paired with countless other grasses and perennials.
