Tufted Hairgrass (Deschampsia cespitosa) is a gorgeous native grass that stands out for its ability to grow well in partially shady conditions. This cool-season, semi-evergreen grass will emerge with dark green foliage in the spring and form an attractive clump. The real show begins in summer, however, when the delicate blooms emerge and form a feathery layer that sways in the slightest breeze and looks spectacular when filtering the early morning or late evening light. Tufted Hairgrass thrives in an environment with more regular irrigation than most native grasses, making it the ornamental grass of choice for beds being irrigated on a moderate watering schedule. This grass makes a gorgeous addition to garden beds and borders of all styles, prairie plantings, and containers. Tufted Hairgrass is somewhat tolerant of urban pollution and is resistant to toxic wastes and soil pollution.
