Last year, I bought two Pampas grass. One, I planted in the ground,
the other in a very large pot. The potted one appears to have died.
I expected it's growth to be restricted, but is being in a pot the
likely cause of it's demise?
Looking for 'interesting' looking plants for large pots. Will Blue
Fescue and Zebra Grass survive in a pot? (sorry, don't know the Latin
names.......I'm a 'common' gardener ) TIA.

The Pampas may have been waterlogged / frozen or even dried out too
much.... Does the pot have good drainage?

Most grasses do really well in pots. Lots of info he

It is an American site so beware of the zone info....

And this one "the Pot and Grass company" :~)) has British stuff:
