CULTURE REPORT
profusion of brown, eyebrow-like
flowers that ripen to off-white seed
heads, curl up vertically and hold
on the plant through winter. 'Zig
Zag' has at least three times more
flowers and seed heads than
regular grama grass and is a tight,
tidy grower that needs very little
extra irrigation once established.
It loves the sun and poor soils of
all types. Compact at 15-18 inches
tall and hardy to USDA Zones 3-10.
'BLONDE AMBITION'
Another discovery by David
Salman, 'Blonde Ambition' stands
out with its chartreuse flowers that
mature to blonde, and " eyebrowshaped "
seed heads that rise
above attractive blue-green
foliage. 'Blonde Ambition' has
won numerous awards, including
Best new perennial/grass at the
Farwest Show and the Plant Select
distinction. It grows up to 30 inches
in mature height, prefers full sun
and is hardy to USDA Zones 3-10.
'HONEYCOMB'
Completing the trio, 'Honeycomb'
is aptly named for its honeyblonde
" eyelash " seedheads, which
are held high on upright stems.
The blooms appear in summer
and hold into winter. Discovered
by Brent Horvath with Intrinsic
Perennial Gardens, 'Honeycomb'
has a fuller habit and is denser,
with less blade dieback than some
other varieties. It stands at 30
inches mature height and is hardy
to USDA Zones 3-10.
CULTURAL INFORMATION
Potting
If you are starting from 50-cell
liner trays, transplant one liner per
pot. The recommended finish size
for grama grass is 1-gallon pots.
Growing media
Bouteloua gracilis does best in
well-draining commercial potting
