Hi
Seems like the frost has got to my two year old Pampas Grass and has
yellowed all the leaf blades.
Do you think I need to chop it right down to almost ground level ?
Thank you in advance.
Gary.

No, don't do anything at the moment. Wait until it dries out and then put a
match to it. Pampas grass loves to be burnt as this happens to it in its
native environment.

hybernating in the dead grass,
A good place for hedghogs to over winter.

WILL DO !
When I lived in South Africa they used to plant a sort of Pampas Grass
all over the mine dumps, I think the plan was that root system would
help keep the dumps together.
If the grass could withstand all the chemical by-products (including
cyanide) of gold production, I should imagine a bit of heat wouldn't
do too much harm!
Thanks.
