Description
A fast-growing and large-clumping ornamental grass, pampas grass gets its name from the lowland plain of South America, the Pampas, where it is native. With graceful, arching leaves and amazingly ornamental flower and seed plumes, a clump of pampas grass is showiest in late summer through late autumn. It grows best where winters are not severely cold.
Origins
Although any species of grass that belongs to the botanical genus Cortaderia is generally called "pampas grass," it is most often a name assigned to one species, Cortaderia selloana. This species is native to the temperate regions of central Chile, central and northern Argentina and extreme southern Brazil.
