ON THIS PLANT
A note from PlantMom

Rush-leaved feather grass has strong resistance to disease and is generally not vulnerable to illnesses. Regarding care, this plant is fairly low-maintenance. Planted outdoors, it needs little watering, and larger specimens typically do not require pruning. Smaller plants, however, should be pruned after they finish blooming. Rush-leaved feather grass is suitable for anyone with an outdoor area, such as a garden or deck, and does not demand much plant-care experience.
