Key Characteristics
Description / Bunny Tails Ornamental Grass Seeds
This is one of those grasses that you grow first on a whim, then as an integral part of your garden. Bunny Tails Ornamental Grass is just that irresistible (and easy). And for an annual, Bunny Tails Ornamental Grass manages to give 12 months or more of beauty when you use its lovely bunny tails as everlastings. Give Bunny Tails Ornamental Grass a try this season and you'll see what I mean.
Bunny Tails Ornamental Grass is neat and compact, just 12 to 20 inches high and about a foot wide. Beginning in early summer, Bunny Tails Ornamental Grass topped by chartreuse puffballs, about 2½ inches wide, that really do look like Peter Cottontail rummaging around in your grass for a dropped Easter egg. They are soft, fluffy, and absolutely irresistible to touch—a big child-pleaser and a nice edging for a pathway, where visitors will smile as the bunny tails brush their legs.
As summer turns to fall, Bunny Tails Ornamental Grass turn to rich tan and dry out beautifully on the plant. You can leave them there—they make spectacular winter accents, lasting until they catch the first heavy snowfall (or all season in mild climates). Or you can cut Bunny Tails Ornamental Grass and use them in dried arrangements, where they will last for MONTHS, refusing to shatter the way some textured grasses do after drying.
Bunny Tails Ornamental Grass is a pleasure to grow, too, because it favors sandy soils that many other plants shun, and once it gets its roots established, it's quite drought-tolerant. Give Bunny Tails Ornamental Grass plenty of sunshine, water throughout the growing season, and watch it fill your garden with bobbing, fluffy blooms. And of course Bunny Tails Ornamental Grass makes a fine complement to just about any flowering plant in containers, where you can pat the bunny all you want.
Space Bunny Tails Ornamental Grass about 10 to 12 inches apart for a solid "bunny field" of color.

Bunny Tails 1 people found this helpfulTried them many years ago with no luck. Started indoors. Was beginning to think I still had bad luck with them, but after more than 2 weeks, to my surprise I have tiny grass sprouts poking up. Hurray! I'm very excited! Thanks Parks for making gardening fun

I'm failing at bunny tail grass 1 people found this helpfulThey germinated and grew just fine indoors. At 6", transplanted, after hardening off, to a dry area in yard and they just keeled over and are flat against the ground.

bunnytails! 1 people found this helpfulkids love the little puffs that have sprouted up throughout the Children's Garden section of our local botanical garden

Disappointed 1 people found this helpfulI was looking forward to trying these in my garden. I purchased them especially to plant with my grandsons. The performance was terrible. Of the whole packages we only got less than a dozen sprouts - like thin, spindly grass. Though we nursed them along in a pot with good potting soil and adequate water, they all died by the middle of July. No plant, no bunny tails and two disapointed grandsons.
-
A successful experiment 1 people found this helpfulI bought these on whim because they looked like alot of fun for the grandkids. Germination was fast and successful under growlights and heat mats. Planted out in a container mid-May and they are loaded with fluffy "bunny tail" seedheads that are quite longlasting. I planted them next to some pumpkin on a stick for a compare and contrast...soft vs. sharp, but that plant isn't doing so well. Next year I'll probably use them for edging.

The grass, itself, is also so velvety. A therapeutic pleasure. 0 people found this helpfulSo much is said of the balls of fluff. I had to mention what a surprise the grass, itself, is!! So soft, you might catch yourself petting the plant on several occasions. Don't tell the neighbors. Keep this little gem to yourself. Easy to start from seeds. I sprinkle a bit more in the pots than suggested because I wanted a thick plant. One pack gives me two 3" pots, with a few seeds left over for a smaller pot.

So cute! 2 people found this helpfulLove the bunny tails grass so much I bought more for next season. Starts off looking like crab grass but soon after the tails appear.
-
Did not germinate at all 1 people found this helpfulI planted these in a seed tray along with a large variety of other seeds that all sprouted... except the bunnytails. I did not get a single seedling to germinate. :(
-
Super easy to grow 3 people found this helpfulThese sprouted in one week and turned out great. I put them all around the bottom of some trees that I have in pots. Looks very attractive, keeps the weeds out, and the moisture in.
-
OH, SO CUTE! 2 people found this helpfulI planted these indoors and they sprouted. When I put them in the little greenhouse outdoors, I thought they all died. Later, I put them all in the sun with all my other seedlings that sprouted and lo and behold, most of them sprouted. They are vigorous and growing cute little bunny tails. This one is a keeper. Next year I will just wait till the weather is warm outside and plant them.

Growing like a Weed 1 people found this helpfulIt is turning out to be a very nice clump of grass, I started them in the winter and put them out in spring, and they are doing very well. The grass itself is soft too.
