Its fine, delicate foliage forms a soft, flowing clump, while the flowering stems can rise slightly above the foliage during the growing season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x1yc453h xma8rkl xgoqxah xutxfr x1fie51u xgyxj25 x1xobyvs x1elgs31 x1fv8qjw xcy5tzr x1ht4adc xnvauns x1c2l018 x14l7nz5 xuw7688 x1pjt2rx x160d6zm xrxpjvj\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"x7amdea\"\u003eTemperature \u0026amp; Humidity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stipa tenuissima is well adapted to warm and relatively dry conditions. It is generally cold hardy once established and does not require high humidity. It performs particularly well in Mediterranean and drought-tolerant landscapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x1yc453h xma8rkl xgoqxah xutxfr x1fie51u xgyxj25 x1xobyvs x1elgs31 x1fv8qjw xcy5tzr x1ht4adc xnvauns x1c2l018 x14l7nz5 xuw7688 x1pjt2rx x160d6zm xrxpjvj\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"x7amdea\"\u003eLighting:\u003c\/strong\u003e This ornamental grass grows best in full sun, where it develops its densest growth and produces abundant flowering stems. It can tolerate light partial shade, although growth may become less compact and flowering may be reduced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x1yc453h xma8rkl xgoqxah xutxfr x1fie51u xgyxj25 x1xobyvs x1elgs31 x1fv8qjw xcy5tzr x1ht4adc xnvauns x1c2l018 x14l7nz5 xuw7688 x1pjt2rx x160d6zm xrxpjvj\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"x7amdea\"\u003eThe Soil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stipa tenuissima prefers light, poor to moderately fertile, well-draining soil. Sandy, rocky or gravelly soils are suitable, provided that excess water drains quickly. Avoid heavy, constantly wet soils, as they can cause root problems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x1yc453h xma8rkl xgoqxah xutxfr x1fie51u xgyxj25 x1xobyvs x1elgs31 x1fv8qjw xcy5tzr x1ht4adc xnvauns x1c2l018 x14l7nz5 xuw7688 x1pjt2rx x160d6zm xrxpjvj\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"x7amdea\"\u003eWatering:\u003c\/strong\u003e Water regularly during the first growing season to help the plant establish. Once established, Stipa tenuissima is highly drought tolerant and requires little supplemental watering. Allow the soil to dry between waterings and avoid excessive moisture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x1yc453h xma8rkl xgoqxah xutxfr x1fie51u xgyxj25 x1xobyvs x1elgs31 x1fv8qjw xcy5tzr x1ht4adc xnvauns x1c2l018 x14l7nz5 xuw7688 x1pjt2rx x160d6zm xrxpjvj\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"x7amdea\"\u003eFertilizer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fertilization is generally not necessary. Stipa tenuissima naturally performs well in relatively poor soils, and excessive fertilizer can encourage weak, overly lush growth. If the soil is particularly poor, a light application of balanced fertilizer in spring may be sufficient.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x1yc453h xma8rkl xgoqxah xutxfr x1fie51u xgyxj25 x1xobyvs x1elgs31 x1fv8qjw xcy5tzr x1ht4adc xnvauns x1c2l018 x14l7nz5 xuw7688 x1pjt2rx x160d6zm xrxpjvj\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"x7amdea\"\u003eReproduction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stipa tenuissima can be propagated by seed or division. It readily produces seeds and can naturally reseed in suitable conditions. Division of established clumps can also be carried out during the cooler part of the growing season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x1yc453h xma8rkl xgoqxah xutxfr x1fie51u xgyxj25 x1xobyvs x1elgs31 x1fv8qjw xcy5tzr x1ht4adc xnvauns x1c2l018 x14l7nz5 xuw7688 x1pjt2rx x160d6zm xrxpjvj\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"x7amdea\"\u003eTransfer:\u003c\/strong\u003e When grown in containers, Stipa tenuissima can be repotted when the roots become crowded, generally every two to three years. Choose a container with good drainage holes and use a light, well-draining growing medium. Avoid oversized containers that retain excessive moisture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x1yc453h xma8rkl xgoqxah xutxfr x1fie51u xgyxj25 x1xobyvs x1elgs31 x1fv8qjw xcy5tzr x1ht4adc xnvauns x1c2l018 x14l7nz5 xuw7688 x1pjt2rx x160d6zm xrxpjvj\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"x7amdea\"\u003eFeatures of Care:\u003c\/strong\u003e One of the great things about Stipa tenuissima is its fine, hair-like foliage and graceful, movement-filled appearance. Its soft green leaves and delicate flowering stems create an attractive texture in gardens and containers. It is an excellent choice for borders, rock gardens, Mediterranean landscapes and drought-tolerant planting schemes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x1yc453h xma8rkl xgoqxah xutxfr x1fie51u xgyxj25 x1xobyvs x1elgs31 x1fv8qjw xcy5tzr x1ht4adc xnvauns x1c2l018 x14l7nz5 xuw7688 x1pjt2rx x160d6zm xrxpjvj\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"x7amdea\"\u003eDifficulties:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stipa tenuissima is generally a low-maintenance plant. The main concern is excessive moisture, particularly in heavy or poorly drained soils. Old or damaged foliage can be trimmed back in late winter or early spring to encourage fresh, healthy growth.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"cybloom","offers":[{"title":"medium (30-40cm)","offer_id":61604172071246,"sku":null,"price":7.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/2416\/3643\/files\/Stipatenuissima.jpg?v=1790066660","url":"https:\/\/cybloom.com\/products\/stipa-tenuissima","provider":"cybloom","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
