Mexican Feather Grass
Mexican Feather Grass (Nassella tenuissima) is a delicate and graceful ornamental grass prized for its feathery, fine-textured foliage and elegant movement. Originating from the southwestern United States and northern Mexico, this perennial grass forms dense clumps of slender, arching leaves that sway with the slightest breeze, resembling a soft, airy fountain. The foliage typically has a green color but turns golden in the fall, creating a captivating display. In late spring to early summer, feathery flower heads rise above the foliage, adding to its visual appeal. Mexican Feather Grass is a drought-tolerant and low-maintenance plant, making it suitable for xeriscaping and water-wise gardening. It thrives in well-drained soil and prefers full sun. This grass is a popular choice for adding a natural, prairie-like look to gardens, borders, rock gardens, or as an accent plant, providing a beautiful and ethereal quality to the landscape. However, it's important to note that in some regions, it may be considered invasive, so it's crucial to check with local authorities regarding its planting and management.
