At the same time, it does not require time-consuming care - a sunny position on a fairly fertile garden soil is enough for lush growth and abundant flowering. Perennial plant, cultivated in 4 season climates only as an annual plant. Fountain Grass, Feathertop Grass creates spreading, lush clumps, taking a hemispherical form. The average height of plants derived from this species is 40-60 cm. Dark green leaves are very dense. They are narrow, long and arched to the ground. Fountain Grass, Feathertop Grass blooms from August to October. Type and color of flowers: oblong inflorescences look like long, bristling panicles. They consist of many very small, creamy pink flowers. Grass should be sown only in sunny positions, without free access to sunlight, because it will not bloom.
