Nassella tenuissima --Mexican Feather Grass--
Nassella tenuissima --Mexican Feather Grass--
Wispy, flowing, lime-green foliage up to 2' tall, the slightest breeze will cause it to sway. This cool-season native grass retains its color year round, although it may brown out somewhat in the heat of the summer. Light, wheat-colored seed heads emerge in May. Self-sowing can occur. Requires dry soil and full sun, and it is very drought tolerant.
