Basic Planting & Care Tips for Ornamental Grasses
Plant in spring or early fall. Match the grass to your site’s sun, soil, and moisture; ensure good drainage and water to establish. Leave stems standing for winter interest and cut back in late winter/early spring. Specific needs vary by variety—the Holub Greenhouses team will be happy to provide you specific care instructions for the varieties we sell.
