Maintenance guide
Easy to grow, but it thrives with regular care! Here’s how to give it the best conditions:
Pennisetum a. Etouffee® thrives in full sun and well-drained soils. It creates a striking effect when planted alone or in groups, with its soft silhouette adding movement to both modern and natural gardens.
Water regularly during the first year to help establish roots, then it becomes relatively drought-tolerant.
Cut back the dry stems in late winter or early spring to encourage fresh, dense new growth.
