Fountain Grass

Question

We have many ornamental grasses in our yard. At first they have a nice fountain appearance, but with time the base spreads and the grass is just a large massive bush. It seems like everyone else’s grasses keep that fountain shape, so what am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

Have you pruned? It often helps to prune the grass back to keep it looking its best. Here is an article that you may find helpful: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/foliage/fountain-grass/fountain-grass-pruning.htm
