watering

Pendant Grass should be watered regularly to keep the soil moist but not soggy. Water the plant about once or twice a week, and be sure not to let the soil dry out completely. In hotter, dryer climates, it may be necessary to water more often. The best way to water this species of grass is to thoroughly soak the soil, allowing the water to slowly soak in and reach the deepest roots before watering again.

sunlight

Pendant Grass (Arctophila fulva) is a plant species native to most parts of Europe. This plant species prefers partial sun to light shade conditions and can survive with as little as 2-4 hours of sunlight per day. However, the ideal amount of sunlight for this species is 4-6 hours a day. In direct sunlight, the leaves may become scorched or burned, so shade during the hottest parts of the day is recommended. When it comes to timing, early morning sun is best for Pendant Grass as it can help to awake the plant and give it an essential start to the day, while also allowing the plant to have some shade during the afternoon hours.

pruning

Pendant Grass (Arctophila fulva) should be pruned once or twice year, typically in early spring and late summer. Pruning should be done to maintain the shape and size of the clump, as well as to remove any dead or diseased foliage and old, non-productive flower stems. When pruning, about 4 inches of the foliage can be taken off. It is important to be aware not to take too much off, because this can kill the plant. After pruning is complete, you should apply a high-quality fertilizer to help the plant recover and continue to thrive.
