Pampas grass blooms in the late summer or early fall. The feathery plumes rise above the tufts. Their color varies; some cultivars have pinkish-white plumes, while others have silvery-white plumes.
Here are some tips on how to grow pampas grass:
- Choose a sunny spot with well-drained soil. Pampas grass does not tolerate wet soil.
- Space the plants 6-8 feet apart.
- Water the plants regularly, especially during the first year after planting.
- Fertilize the plants in the spring with a balanced fertilizer.
- Deadhead the flowers after they bloom.
- Cut the plants back to the ground in the late winter or early spring.
With proper care, pampas grass can be a beautiful and long-lasting addition to your garden.
