Nassella tenuissima in the San Marcos Growers Garden |
| |
|
A fine textured clumping grass which occurs naturally from Texas to New
Mexico south through Central America to Chile. This grass forms wispy tufts to 2 ft tall and as wide of bright green thread-like leaves. In
mid-summer the soft plume-like flower spikes form, rising only slightly above the foliage. It is both drought resistant and cold hardy. After
flowering it is best watered only by drip irrigation or left unwatered as the application of overhead water will encourage this grass to seed out.Unfortunately this plant reseeds extensively in gardens that it has been planted and spreads to areas outside of these plantings. Since 2008 we no longer have sold this invasive plant!
