Description
These ornamental grasses are Evergreen: Comb or rake off any old, tired or dead leaves and flowers in spring. If needed evergreens can be cut back (by up to half) at almost any time from April to July. Do not cut back in autumn or winter.
These plants can be trimmed back hard after flowering to encourage a new sheaf of fresh foliage.
