Pompous Pampas
This Pampas grass on the shore of the Rappahannock River in Virginia has every reason to be pompous. It is taller than other marsh grasses (it can grow to ten feet), it’s feathery plumes are full and flowing and it blooms in late August, but the plumes last for months. It also reseeds itself, which causes some ecologists to believe it is harmful to the ecosystems in marshy areas. It can be easily dried and brought into the house as a decorative arrangement.
