Q&A – When should I cut back my pampas grass?
Question:
When should I cut back my pampas grass?
Answer:
Pampas grass provides movement and sound in the garden during the winter. It also provides shelter for wildlife. UT Extension Horticulture Specialist Carol Reese does not cut her pampas grass until late winter. Pampas grass will come out of dormancy early in the spring and she tries to cut the old grass just before the new shoots start to come up.
