undefined Hi, I live in zone 6A, Toronto. I have a purple fountain grass that is a tender perennial. I would like to save it for next year. Does anyone know how I can overwinter it. Thanks, Lorraine
overwintering purple fountain grass If it is in a pot, you can bring it in the house, clip the foliage down to about 3 inches from the top of the pot and stick it in a sunny window in a cool room. Keep it moist, (but not soaking wet) because it can die very easily from drying out. It will revert to green colouration and won't look like much for the winter, but when it goes back outside in the spring, it should come back to original form and colour. I have only done this once, and found it to be more trouble than it is worth. It's really a disposable plant.
