Care & Size Guidance
Plant Stipa tenuissima in evenly moist soil with good drainage, in a position that receives full sun to partial shade and it should thrive.
Cut old foliage back in late winter before new growth begins in spring to keep up its stunning appearance.
So pleased with quality and condition of these plants. Excellent all round. Thankyou.

Arrived very quickly. Healthy plants.
I’m looking forward to seeing them grow into an interesting focal point in decorative planters. I’ve brought several ferns etc from the Palm Centre and am always pleased with the plants.
