Coastal Panicgrass

Panicum amarum var. amarulum
Secondary Sand Dune Stabilization

About Coastal Panicgrass

Coastal Panicgrass is a fast-growing, native, warm-season plant.  It naturally occurs from Massachusettes to Florida and west to Texas.  The deep fibrous root system makes it a top choice for secondary sand dune stabilization in mid-Atlantic states.  It makes a good vegetative wind barrier and is a popular wildlife cover. The fast growth rate makes it useful as a primary stabilizer of highly drained sites such as gravel pits, dikes, and road bank cut-outs.  Coastal Panicgrass will only survive on sand dunes when other species have stabilized the location as it does not tolerate large deposits of sand.
