Melinis nerviglumis Savannah 

 

The pink blooms of Savannah Ruby Grass appear in midsummer with a rich pink-burgundy hue and gradually open into a shiny, shimmering pink. These iridescent blooms last a long time, transitioning through various shades of pink before fading to a soft, buff color. The blooms are delicate, and the foliage adds contrast with its light bluish-green tone.
