Plant Description:

A low growing bamboo type grass. Maximum height is around 50 cms. Forms neatly rounded clumps. The foliage is feathery. Leaves are 4 to 6 cms long and drooping. The bamboo grass does flower. It has small grass like flowers at the ends of its shoots. They however are easily missed.
Plants can be used in many ways. A handy one!

Growing tips:

This is an easy to grow plant. Does well in all types of soils. Grows quickly and stays in shape. It is very popular with landscapists. Can be trimmed into a perfect round shape. Also great for planting in pedestal pots or raised beds - as its drooping branches give a very graceful look. It does well in shade but the clump is a little less fuller. Once a year the plants should be cut low - this cleans all old growth. This is best done before the monsoon - especially in high rainfall areas.
- Make sure not to let the plants dry out too much. They loose their lusture immediately. They also recover immediately.
