{"product_id":"pennisetum-alopecuroides-nafray","title":"Swamp Foxtail Grass - Pennisetum alopecuroides NAFRAY®","description":"\u003cp\u003eIf you have been comparing this with common swamp foxtail, the difference that matters is seed. Straight Pennisetum alopecuroides throws viable seed into drains, bushland edges and neighbouring paddocks, and a number of councils now discourage it. NAFRAY was selected for very low seed set, which is why it keeps turning up on approved species lists for civil and streetscape work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVisually it does everything people want from a foxtail. Fine green blades build a dense evergreen clump, and soft bottlebrush plumes arch out above the foliage from late summer, ageing to a warm buff that catches low afternoon light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt suits mass planting on batters, medians and path edges where a soft line beats a hard one. Cut the whole clump back hard in late winter with hedge shears; skip that and thatch builds up in the crown and the planting looks tired by its second season. Offered in 200mm, 140mm and 130mm for staged jobs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3 class=\"pd-size-guidance\"\u003eChoosing a size\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis plant is available in 3 sizes, from 130mm up to 200mm, priced from $16.95 to $29.95 per plant. The size shown is the pot the plant arrives in, which is the rootball, not the height of the plant. These are younger plants, priced for planting in quantity, and they establish quickly once in the ground. Not sure which to choose?
