The growth of pampas grass
Pampas grass shows a very fast growth. In a garden season inflorescences grow up to three meters in height. The leaves remain one meter lower. The eyrie, as the rootstock is called, increases several centimeters per year.
What is the growth of pampas grass per year?
How fast and how high pampas grass grows each year depends on the species. There are over 600 species, of which only a few are cultivated in the garden.
Provide sufficient nutrients
For pampas grass to reach its fast growth, it needs enough nutrients. Fertilization is therefore essential, regardless of whether it grows in the tub or in the garden.
Tips
Pampas grass grows particularly well as a single plant, as it does not dispute other plants' nutrients. If you combine several varieties together, you must maintain sufficient planting distance.
