Growing Tips & Maintenace
- Grows best in an average to dry soil, in full sun to light shade. Too much moisture will cause the flowers to fall over. Leaving the foliage adds winter interest if desired, but prune in late winter to make way for new growth.
Additional Notes
- Warm Season Grasses: These grasses are much slower starting in the spring. They do not push new growth until temperatures warm in early to midsummer. They flower later in the summer or fall with most blooms remaining into the winter. Most warm season grasses tolerate heat, humidity and drought; some even thrive in these conditions.
