Panicum Effusum (Hairy Panic) is a hardy Australian native perennial grass valued for its fine-textured foliage and airy, open seed heads that create movement and softness in the landscape. Adapted to a wide range of climates, this resilient species performs exceptionally well in native gardens, revegetation projects, and naturalistic landscapes. Its graceful habit adds texture and visual interest while providing habitat and food for native wildlife.

Easy to establish and requiring very little maintenance, Hairy Panic is drought tolerant once established and thrives in well-drained soils. It is ideal for erosion control, stabilising embankments, and mass planting, while its delicate flowering panicles provide seasonal interest. This versatile native grass is an excellent choice for gardeners seeking a low-maintenance, environmentally beneficial landscape plant.
