planting Pampas Grass

I am planning on planting Pampas Grass as a privacy barrier, but I would like to have the one with the big fluffy blooms, rather than the less full one. Does anyone know what that one is called?

The female plants are the ones with the showier plumes, and normally they are the only ones available for sale. Pampas grass is normally hardy only to zone 7 or 6, so make sure the variety you get is hardy in your area.
