One of the three very best grasses we have grown
Family: Poaceae
Common name: Broad-leafed Snow Tussock
Plant Classification: Hardy perennial
Minimum Height: 1.2 meters
Maximum Height: 1.8 meters
A fabulously impressive New Zealand grass. Long, stout wands carry twelve inch long heads of golden tassels towering above stiff compact tussocks. One of the three very best grasses we have grown.
Sowing advice:
Sow at any time, in a well-lit position, into a good, soil-based compost. Cover seeds thinly and keep moist at around 15 degrees C or 60 degrees F. Some New Zealand species can be very slow indeed and may need cooler temperatures before they will come up. Grass seedlings should be potted on and grown on singly, or in clumps for more rapid establishment of a large specimen.
