Easy to grow with several weeks of harvest time from one planting. A warm season ornamental grass good fresh and dried.

Seed Raising, Growing and Harvest Information
| Plant Type | Site | Spacing | Height | Sowing Depth |
Days to Germination |
Days to Maturity |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Annual | Full Sun | 6cm apart | 120-150cm | 3mm | 5-8 days @18-21°C |
90-110 days |
DIRECT SOW(recommended) - Sow 3mm deep in rows 20cm apart, 1 seed/cm; cover lightly. Thin to 6cm
TRANSPLANT - Sow into cells 4 weeks before planting out. Cover with soil or vermiculite. Do NOT Pinch. Each plant produces one seed head.
HARVEST/VASE LIFE: Fresh or dried: harvest when seed heads are still green or have turned colour, but foliage and stems are still green. To dry, stand cut stems in a container as the weight of the seed head will curve the stems gracefully; or hang in a dark, well-ventilated space. Expect a vase life of 7-14 days.
