hi all,
i was wondering when would be a good time to dig and transplant ornamental
grass, such as pampas grass.
and when should i cut it back.
this is the grasses with tall flowering plumes that grow in clumps.
i live in eastern ohio
thanks


I would have been doing it last week, but it's been wet and soggy here and not a
very good time to mess with clay soils. You can do it any time, really.
Ornamental grasses are extremely tough plants. I have to divide many of mine
this year, so my plant sale will be great. Finally, after four years in this
garden I have plants to sell to support my habit!
