- Golden blooms and red berries
- Hardy, low-maintenance shrub
Stipa tenuissima 'Sima', more commonly known as Mexican Feather Grass, is a hardy perennial grass that introduces a delicate texture and movement to your garden. Its fine, thread-like foliage forms elegant, arching clumps that dance gracefully in the slightest breeze. The buff-coloured flowerheads add a subtle, silvery shimmer, enhancing the tactile nature of this deciduous grass.
A low-maintenance and resilient choice, Stipa tenuissima 'Sima' becomes drought-tolerant once established, ideal for gardeners seeking an easy-care plant. It thrives in well-drained soil and full sun, making it perfect for sunny borders, patio containers, gravel gardens, or pathway edging. This grass freely self-seeds, creating beautiful, wispy drifts over time.
Plant in full sun for optimal growth. Hardy and adaptable to various temperatures, it flourishes in warmer climates. Water regularly upon planting to establish, then reduce frequency as the plant matures, avoiding waterlogged conditions. Feed with a balanced fertiliser during the growing season to promote healthy growth. It tolerates average humidity levels but prefers well-drained soil.
