Deschampsia caespitosa
Deschampsia caespitosa, commonly known as Tufted Hair Grass, is a graceful ornamental grass forming neat, dense clumps of slender green foliage. Its elegant arching habit adds texture and movement to borders and containers, making it a versatile choice for both contemporary and naturalistic planting schemes. During summer, airy, nodding panicles of silvery flowers flushed with soft purple rise above the foliage, creating a delicate, shimmering effect in the breeze.
The flowers are excellent for both fresh and dried arrangements, while the attractive seed heads extend the season of interest well into autumn. Easy to grow and requiring very little maintenance, this hardy grass thrives in full sun or light shade in moist, well-drained soil. Its compact habit makes it ideal for smaller gardens, containers and mixed perennial borders.
