Description:

6’ x 36” wide, (division propagated). This ‘Pumila’ variety is a smaller, more cold hardy version of Pampas Grass. It is extremely showy with its large, fluffy white flower heads that are held on stout stems. It thrives in hot, full sun exposures and is especially useful as a specimen along walls and in corners. Plant it in moderately fertile soil with good drainage. Leave standing over the winter before cutting it back hard in mid-spring. Pumila is sterile and won’t re-seed itself. Not recommended for fall planting in Zone 6. Sold in #1 (“gallon”) pots. Zones 6-10.
