Description

Nassella (Stipa) tenuissima 'Pony Tails'

Also known as Mexican Feather Grass, this graceful ornamental grass adds elegance and softness to any landscape. Its fine, hair-like foliage sways with the wind, creating beautiful movement and texture.

‘Pony Tails’ thrives in dry, sunny areas and is extremely drought-tolerant once established. It produces delicate buff-colored flower spikes in summer that persist through fall. This deer-resistant, low-maintenance grass is perfect for borders, rock gardens, or containers.

It adapts to various soil types as long as they are well-drained. Great for xeriscaping, it’s ideal in modern and naturalized gardens alike. It is non-invasive and works beautifully as a filler or mass planting feature.

Very low-maintenance. In late winter, gently comb out dead foliage to tidy the plant. No pruning required otherwise.

Is it deer resistant?

Yes, Mexican Feather Grass is deer resistant and rarely browsed by animals.

Can I grow this in containers?

Absolutely! 'Pony Tails' looks beautiful in decorative pots and sways gracefully in the wind, even in small garden spaces.

How much water does it need?

Very little. Once established, it is drought-tolerant and prefers dry to medium moisture levels. Overwatering can harm the roots.
