The container must have drainage holes and the drainage can make for a messy area around your pot. A 5 gallon bucket filled with a medium density potting soil is a good start. |

There are quite a lot of decorative grasses - maybe a slightly smaller one with a 'pampas' sort of look would work better if you need to grow it in a pot? http://www.angliangardener.co.uk/Plants/grasses.htm http://www.grasses.co.uk/ http://www.knollgardens.co.uk/ may give you some ideas. -- gardening on a north-facing hill in South-East Cornwall -- |

How do you get rid of one already established in your garden and do you know anything about the root spread of these things? I have one positioned next to an underground tank and I'm concerned it may breach it. Vicky |
