It can tolerate sandy or clay soils but may benefit from amending the soil with organic matter to improve drainage. Watering requirements for Pampas Grass are moderate. Established plants are relatively drought-tolerant and can withstand dry conditions. However, regular watering during prolonged dry periods can help maintain its vigor and promote better flowering. Water deeply, allowing the soil to dry between waterings. Pruning Pampas Grass is essential for its overall health and appearance. In late winter or early spring, before new growth emerges, cut back the previous year's foliage to about 12 inches above the ground. Be cautious when handling the plant, as the leaves can be sharp. Removing the old foliage helps rejuvenate the plant, promotes new growth, and prevents it from becoming untidy or overgrown. Fertilization is generally not necessary for Pampas Grass. However, if desired, you can apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in spring to provide additional nutrients. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for application rates and methods. Avoid excessive fertilization, as it can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowering.
