Description

The listing, Bunny Tails Ornamental Grass Seed (10) has ended.

Perfect for fresh and dried arrangements!
Easy to grow, irresistible, and drought-tolerant!
This is one of those grasses that you grow first on a whim, then as an integral part of your garden! It's just that irresistible (and easy). And for an annual, it manages to give 12 months or more of beauty when you use its lovely bunny tails as Everlastings! Give it a try this season and you'll see what I mean!
The plant itself is neat and compact, just 12 to 20 inches high and about a foot wide. Beginning in early summer, it's topped by chartreuse puffballs, about 2? inches wide that really do look like Peter Cottontail rummaging around in your grass for a dropped Easter egg! They are soft, fluffy, and absolutely irresistible to touch--a big child-pleaser and a nice edging for a pathway, where visitors will smile as the bunny tails brush their legs!

Hi Angelliceight,
I'm really not sure. I'll send you an Information Sheet, and maybe that will help you. Thanks for your questions.

Easy to grow, irresistible, and drought tolerant!
Perfect for fresh and dried arrangements!
The plant is neat and compact just 12 to 20 inches high and about a foot wide. Beginning in early summer, It’s topped by chartreuse puffballs, about 2-inches wide, that really do look like Peter Cotton Tail rummaging around in your grass for a dropped Easter Egg! They are soft, fluffy, and absolutely irresistible to touch—a big child- pleaser and a nice edging for a pathway, where visitors will smile as the bunny tails brush their legs!
As summer turns to fall, the bunny tails turn to a rich tan and dry out beautifully on the plant. You can leave them there—they make spectacular winter accents, lasting until they catch the first heavy snowfall (or all season in mild climates). Or you can cut them and use them in dried arrangements, where they will last for MONTHS, refusing to shatter the way some textured grasses do after drying.
Bunny tails is a pleasure to grow, too, because it favors sandy soils that many other plants shun, and once it gets it’s roots established, it’s quite drought-tolerant. Give it plenty of sunshine, water throughout the growing season, and watch it fill your garden with bobbing, fluffy blooms! And of course it makes a fine complement to just about any flowering plant in containers, where you can pat the bunny all you want!
Plant Height-12-20 inches Moisture Requirements-Moist, Well drained Plant Width – 12 inches Resistance-Drought Tolerant
Bloom Size-2.5 inches Habit-Compact
Light Requirements- Full Sun Uses-Beds, Cut Flowers, Everlastings

Any grass, whether ornamental or domesticated has the potential to spread...whether by seed, stem "runner" on TOP of the soil OR below...being a Certified Landscape Gardener I would suggest dead-heading ( removing the spent flower head BEFORE it dries out & drops seed) as this plant (and pretty much ANY grass) freely self-sows...Just so you know, one cannot rely on common names ie:Bunny Tails...they aren't reliable...too many plants with the same common name...this is why botanical names are so very important in identification & care of any one plant
