Stipa Tenuissima 'Ponytails' - Fine-Haired Ornamental Grass (48 Pack)
The Stipa tenuissima 'Ponytails' is a graceful, fine-haired ornamental grass that adds a playful and airy touch to your garden. This hardy grass blooms from May to September with soft, white plumes and thrives best in full sun. Low-maintenance and perfect for any garden setting!
Key Features
This semi-evergreen grass forms dense clumps with fine, needle-like flexible leaves that sway gracefully in the slightest breeze. The wispy, pale yellow-green foliage is topped with feathery, silver-green plumes that mature into a blonde-buff hue throughout the growing season. Each plant arrives in a 9cm recyclable growing pot at 10-25cm height, ready for planting.
Growing Conditions
Stipa tenuissima 'Ponytails' prefers full sun and well-drained soil. Once established, this drought-tolerant grass requires minimal watering, making it ideal for xeriscaping and low-maintenance gardens. It thrives in gravel gardens, coastal regions, and sunny borders. This perennial grass is hardy and performs best when planted in spring or autumn.
Garden Applications
Perfect for mass plantings, mixed perennial borders, or large containers. Space plants approximately 30cm apart to allow for air circulation and natural growth. The compact size and flowing texture make this grass excellent for softening edges, filling gaps between bolder perennials, or creating movement in modern and Mediterranean garden designs. Pairs beautifully with drought-tolerant plants like Lavandula, Nepeta, Verbena bonariensis, and Echinacea.
Bulk Pack Benefits
This 48-pack offers exceptional value for larger landscaping projects, allowing you to create stunning drifts and naturalistic plantings. The bulk quantity is ideal for borders, slopes, rock gardens, or establishing a cohesive ornamental grass meadow. All plants are supplied directly from our nursery in recyclable growing pots.
Care Instructions
Water regularly after planting until established. In early spring, comb through the plant to remove dead foliage - no cutting back required. This grass is relatively pest and disease-free but ensure good drainage to prevent prolonged wet conditions. Applying general fertilizer during the growing season encourages healthy growth.
Please note: Plants are living products and may therefore differ from the photo and description. We grow in a natural way and only intervene when necessary, which can sometimes cause the plant to show minor imperfections. These often recover in your garden. We guarantee that our plants are vigorous and long lasting. They are supplied in recyclable growing pots and are shipped directly from our nursery.
