Pampas Grass Seeds - Flower Plant

Pampas grass is a tall, ornamental perennial grass known for its large, feathery plumes and clumping growth habit. It forms dense tufts of arching foliage with tall flower stalks that rise above the leaves, creating a striking vertical presence in landscapes. This species is well adapted to a wide range of climates, particularly temperate and subtropical regions, and performs best in full sun with well-drained soil. Pampas grass is commonly used for borders, screening, and ornamental planting in open spaces due to its height and texture.
