Features and uses:
The
Pennisetum alopecuroides Little Honey born in Asia and Australia, belongs to the Poaceae family and is an evergreen ornamental grass with very compact growth.
It is mainly used
to make borders, to delimit green areas or to vase to adorn terraces and patios.
Its leaves are
green variegated in white, very thin and fairly short. The tips tend to bend, forming a tuft with a fountain effect. The
inflorescence that appears between August and October is typical of
ornamental grasses, a small owl that resembles a beige-colored pencil.
It adapts perfectly to
all types of soil and is perfect for those who want to have a well-groomed, refined and elegant green space, but with minimal effort. In fact,
Pennisetum alop. Little Honey is
not subject to parasites, does not require regular water and does not require maintenance during the year, if not a single pruning at the end of winter that can be practiced by anyone to eliminate the dry leaves.

cylindrical Imperata,
Miscanthus sin. Adagio,
