WON'T GO WILD

Lots of people move here from California where pampas grass is basically outlawed and hated for its invasiveness (although I ask what else is growing on those barren eroded slopes along the highway). The "dwarf" pampas grass won't go wild here and it is a bit more tidy and compact. It's a great plant. As with most grasses, they should be cut back in late winter to relieve the plant of old foliage and make way for the new.
