Ponytail grass really does look like a ponytail. 🌾 It's a plant of superb delicacy that is a really good foil to other bolder-leaved plants. It grows about 45cm high and positively shimmers in the evening light when the sun is low. It will also seed itself around, so you'll find it popping up among other plants. #AlanTitchmarsh #gardeningtips #GardeningHacks #OrnamentalGrasses #gardening | Gardening With Alan Titchmarsh

Nassella tenuissima is possibly the finest ornamental grass in our garden. Its soft plumes sway in the slightest breeze adding a sense of coolness on a hot summer day. The fine texture pairs incredibly well with the strong architectural forms of agave, yucca, and desert shrubs. Mexican feather grass is extremely drought tolerant and is generally unbothered by deer. Zones: 7a to 10b. In stock. #ornamentalgrass #sunplants #droughttolerant #nativeplants | Plant Delights Nursery, Inc.
