The Little Bunny Miniature Fountain Grass is the smallest of the fountain grass varieties, growing no more than 18 inches tall and wide. It forms a dense clump of slender arching green leaves, topped by an abundance of fluffy flower stalks that do look just like rabbit’s tails. This easy grass is perfect for accents in small beds, adding to a rock garden, planting as an edging, or for growing in containers and planter boxes, mixed with flowers.
In full sun is the best spot for the Little Bunny Miniature Fountain Grass, which will also take just a little partial shade. It grows vigorously in any well-drained soil, including poor and sandy soils. Generally free of pests or diseases and ignored by deer, this is an easy plant to grow. A simple haircut to a couple of inches tall in late fall or early spring is all it needs to keep it growing perfectly.
