A new cultivar of Panicum plant named Nontlobg that is characterized by its average plant height of 2.1 m and plant width of 0.9 m in width, its upright, vase-shaped, and tight plant habit, its narrow base, its broad, green foliage, and its flowers that are rose in color that turn silvery in color.

The new and distinct cultivar of ornamental switch grass named Panicum virgatum Blue Fountain with broad blue-green foliage that retains it coloration into the fall. The tall, upright and arching dense culms produce broadly-spreading airy panicles of greenish tan and are retained into winter.

Several Proso cultivars are disclosed having improved yields. The technology relates to the seeds, plants, and plant parts of Proso cultivars; and further provides methods for producing progeny of Proso cultivars. The technology also relates to Proso cultivars or breeding cultivars, and plant parts derived from Proso cultivars; and to methods for producing other Proso cultivars, lines, or plant parts derived from Proso cultivars, and to the Proso plants, varieties, and their parts derived from use of those methods. The technology further relates to hybrid Proso seeds, plants, and plant parts produced by crossing improved-yield Proso cultivars with another Proso cultivar.

A new and distinct plant of ornamental Switch Grass named Panicum 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.
