Abstract
A new and distinct plant of ornamental Switch Grass named'Half Pint' with upright blue-green foliage that retains its coloration into the fall. The upright, compact, and dense culms produce small-height plants with broadly airy panicles beginning greyed green, developing rosy-reddish seed heads that are retained as creamy-tan into winter. The upright foliage and inflorescences produce a tight habit that is narrower than the height of the inflorescences. The new plant is useful in the landscape as a specimen, en masse, or in a container.
