£12.99
2 Litre Pot
This ornamental grass forms a clump of green, linear leaves, turning yellow in autumn. It’s grown for its tall, fluffy plumes of flowerheads that are silver-grey with purple tints. Plant in full sun for a more upright habit and in the middle of a border for the best effect.

Care Notes
On arrival, unpack your new garden additions, and, if needed, give a light watering. Your plants are containerised and established, so you can get planting, as long as the ground is not waterlogged or frozen (in these situations, keep your plants in a sheltered position while you wait). For the first year, keep an eye on moisture availability, while roots settle into their new home.
