I just don't know, maybe a zone 9 gardener on this list could give us an
idea of how they overwinter this grass? It would be tough to put 3 P.
'Burgundy Giant's together - they get huge!

Marilyn,
Have ever found any way to keep these over the winter. When we buy a young
plant here, it will take most of the summer to put on enough size to look
good. One needs three in a group at least. I wondered if you could force
this plant into dormancy and keep it going.
