Maintenance guide
Easy to grow, but it thrives with regular care! Here’s how to give it the best conditions:
Pennisetum ‘Sky Rocket’ thrives in full sun, where its variegated foliage looks the brightest and most striking.
Keep the soil slightly moist, especially in containers. Ensure good drainage to avoid waterlogging.
Apply a balanced fertilizer monthly to stimulate growth and enhance foliage density.
Trim spent flower stalks to maintain a neat look. Grown as an annual in colder climates, or overwintered in pots where frost is absent.
