Fountain Grass

Question

We have fountain grass in the front of our house and it has ‘flowered’. I was just wondering if you need to trim off the ‘flowers’ when or if they die off? I was also wondering about transplanting. We need to relocate one of them, so how do I go about doing so?

Answer 1

Yes, you can go ahead and cut off the blooms but save any drastic pruning that it may need for late winter/early spring. This article will help: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/foliage/fountain-grass/fountain-grass-pruning.htm

Transplanting can be performed in early spring prior to new growth or after the growing season in late summer or fall.
