Pennisetum 'Stipa Ponytails' - Feather Grass

The Stipa tenuifolia, or Mexican feather grass, is an elegant, hardy grass species with silvery plumes. The plant has a rich inflorescence of very fine flower stems up to approximately 70 cm high, which rustle in the wind. This versatile grass is ideal for a sunny garden, large ornamental pot or perennial border. The plumes give a rural and calming effect in a light breeze. The plant also fits perfectly in a garden with an oriental theme.

Dog Care
Grow Stipa in fertile, well-drained soil in full sun. It is recommended to prune Stipa back to about 20 cm above the ground in the spring. The grasses will then quickly grow back and form new 'hairs'. It is also possible to carefully comb through the grass tufts with your fingers in the spring, wearing garden gloves, to loosen the dead leaves from the plant. This ornamental grass remains green and hardy in the winter.

Format
The plants have a height of 40-60cm upon delivery, measured including the nursery pot. The plants are supplied in a nursery pot with a diameter of 23cm.
