Fall panicum can be propagated by seed. Sow the seeds in well-draining soil in the spring after the last frost. Keep the soil moist until germination occurs.
修剪
Pruning is not typically required for fall panicum. However, if the plant becomes too tall or unruly, it can be trimmed back to maintain its shape.
