Pampas Grass Plant Instructions Tips: Pour an even mixture of moistened peat moss and light sand into a 4-inch diameter planting container. Pink pampas grass seeds require loose, well-drained, moist soil for germination. Plant the seeds indoors four to six weeks before the last killing frost in spring. Keep the plants indoors during the first winter to protect young plants from frost if seeds are planted later than spring. Place five evenly spaced pink pampas grass seeds on the soil surface in the planter. Lightly press the seeds into the soil; do not cover them with potting mix. Water the soil until moist to the touch but not soaking wet. Add water slowly so the seeds don't wash away. Cover the planters with a clear plastic food storage bag. Place the open end of the bag over the planter to allow air circulation and control soil temperature and moisture. Most people are familiar with the large clumps of lush grass-like foliage and creamy white feathery plumes of pampas grass (though pink varieties are available too). Pampas grass (Cortaderia) is an attractive ornamental grass that is popular in many landscapes. It¡¯s actually a very fast grower and can become quite large anywhere from 5 and 10 feet high and wide and even invasive. Growing Pampass Grass Before growing pampas grass be sure to put it somewhere in the landscape where it has plenty of room to grow especially when planting more than one. When mass planting pampas grass you¡¯ll have to space them about 6 to 8 feet apart. Pampas grass enjoys areas with full sun but will tolerate partial shade. It also tolerates a wide range of soil types but prefers moist well-draining soil. Another plus side to growing pampas grass is its tolerance of drought wind and salt sprays¡ªwhich is why you commonly see the plant along coastal regions. The grass is hardy in USDA zones 7-11 but in well protected areas it can also be grown in Zone 6.
