Cortaderia selloana Pink Feather -Pampas Grass in 1 L Pot

A great plant for autumn impact. One of the biggest grasses all the way from Australia. Very large and impressive pink, feathery plumes are produced in Autumn and last into Winter. Can be used as part of floral arrangements. The leaves of this superb plant form a graceful arching effect that makes them ideal for use as specimen plant in a lawn, border or container. Easy to grow in full sun or partial shade in almost any free draining soil. This plant can be used in a mixed planting or as a stand alone specimen in the garden or can easily be grown in a pot or other container. If in a pot it can stay outside over winter but ensure the compost has grit added and is free draining. Use a good quality John Innes compost as this plant will be there a long time and peaty types of compost eventually degrade become too packed and choke the roots. Ensure you feed regularly as a hungry plant is a poor performer. We recommend Osmocote pro 11-12 month applied in the early spring. One application gives all the nutrients the plant requires for the whole year. John Innes is a soils based compost. These are very well established two year old plants. Please note: Our young plants are cut back in late summer as the flower spikes on young plants are to difficult to transport.
