Polar Daisy

Wideleaf Polargrass should be watered twice a week or whenever the soil feels dry. When watering, water deeply for 1 or 2 minutes to make sure the soil is saturated with moisture. After watering, check the drainage of the pot to make sure all the extra water has drained out. Avoid over-watering, as this can cause root rot and other problems. If the grass is grown in garden soil, water just enough to keep the soil moist during the growing season. During the winter, water less but still enough to keep the soil from drying out completely.

Wideleaf Polargrass requires full sunlight to thrive. This means 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day. In the winter, it should be kept in a well-lit area to prevent any stunting or discoloration from lack of light.

For Wideleaf Polargrass (Arctagrostis latifolia subsp. latifolia), pruning should be performed once a year in early spring before the grass begins to put out new growth. Prune the grass close to the ground and cut off no more than 1/3 of the foliage. Additionally, it is important to remove any thatch (dead matter) which may have built up between shoots. Take care to avoid pruning back to bare soil, as this can damage the root system and lead to undesirable branching and growth.
