Hi

Seems like the frost has got to my two year old Pampas Grass and has
yellowed all the leaf blades.

Do you think I need to chop it right down to almost ground level ?

Thank you in advance.

No, don't do anything at the moment. Wait until it dries out and then put a
match to it. Pampas grass loves to be burnt as this happens to it in its
native environment.

Phil

Thanks Phil, that great.

Regards.

WILL DO !

When I lived in South Africa they used to plant a sort of Pampas Grass
all over the mine dumps, I think the plan was that root system would
help keep the dumps together.

If the grass could withstand all the chemical by-products (including
cyanide) of gold production, I should imagine a bit of heat wouldn't
do too much harm!

Thanks.

Gary.
