Plant Care

Zebra Grass is relatively low-maintenance once established. Cut back old foliage in late winter or early spring before new growth emerges. During the first growing season, water regularly to establish a deep root system. Divide clumps every 3-4 years to maintain vigor and prevent center die-out.

Planting Instructions

Plant in spring or early fall, spacing plants 4-6 feet apart. Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball and at the same depth. Place the plant at the same level it was growing in the container, backfill with soil, and water thoroughly. Apply a layer of mulch around the base, keeping it away from the crown.
