Growing Information
To grow Pennisetum 'fire-works,' start by potting up the plants and nurturing them in warm, frost-free conditions until they are ready for transplanting into beds, borders, or containers. Water sparingly until the plants are fully rooted. Once they are well established and the risk of frost has passed, gradually acclimate them to outdoor conditions over 7 to 10 days. Plant Fountain Grass in moist, light, well-drained soil in full sun for optimal growth.
