Although pampas grass tolerates drought quite well, the roots should never dry out completely. This is especially true if you pull the ornamental grass in the bucket. You have to keep this in mind when watering the perennial.

Pampas grass doesn't need a lot of water

Water frequently during the growing season

Pampas grass prefers loose, sandy soil that cannot become waterlogged. Since the substrate can hardly store any water, you have to water the plant regularly during the growing season.

This is especially true if you cultivate pampas grass in the tub. Regular watering is absolutely necessary here.

To prevent waterlogging, the planter must have sufficiently large drainage holes in the bottom. After watering, check that the soil has absorbed all the water. If there is water in the saucer or in the planter, you should pour it off immediately.

tips

The clump of pampas grass is very sensitive to moisture. Therefore, always water around the plant and never directly in the middle.
