- You can enjoy fresh green foliage topped by long, thick dusty plumes when you grow Pampas Grass seeds.
These elegant ornamental grasses have "feather duster" plumes from late summer and throughout the fall!
The plumes are often cut and dried for indoor use, or they can be left on the plant for wonderful winter interest.
Ornamental Pampas Grass is not only attractive, but it also is very functional.-
How To Grow Pampas Grass From Ornamental Grass Seeds:
Cortaderia selloana seeds can be started indoors.
Using a seed starting tray filled with a pre-moistened seed starting medium that drains well, place the ornamental grass seeds on top of the soil and gently press the seeds in.
Keep Pampas Grass seeds moist until germination occurs. The ornamental grass plants will need to be re-potted into larger pots as they grow.
Some gardeners start the Pampas Grass seeds directly outside in the spring after danger of frost has passed. Prepare a seedbed, and press the seeds into the soil that has been worked into a fine tilth.
