Pampas grasses

Pampas grass - what is it?

The popular pampas (pampas grass) is nothing more than a plant called Cortaderia. It is an ornamental garden grass, native to the pampas areas of South America. Relatively recently, as only with the rise in popularity of boho style and close-to-nature aesthetics, dried grasses have taken residential and commercial interiors and locations as unique as wedding halls by storm. Pampas are prized for the lightness they lend to arrangements and their multitude of forms and colors.

Dried pampas grass - colors and appearance

Plants are available in white, cream and even pink. The richness of colors means that decorative pampas grass will fit into any room, regardless of the style of the interior. Of course, where subdued colors dominate, it is best to choose natural-looking ears and those in classic, delicate shades. An interesting accent that adds a bit of avant-garde character to traditional interiors is colorful pampas grass. This will bring a lot of freshness to the room.

Dried pampas grass - compositions

Dried pampas grass is an ideal decorative element. You can compose from it:

Small bouquets - you can easily fit them into medium-sized vases, preferably glass ones (for example, in the shape of a ball). Set such a decoration on the mantelpiece, a cabinet among photos or in the bathroom.
Tall compositions - a bouquet of long grasses will go well in a tall and narrow vase, set on the floor.
Consider combining dried pampas with live flowers. Suitable for this include: jaspers, eucalyptus or cotton twigs. Dried pampas grass is also an integral part of boho style wedding bouquets. Presented alone or accompanied - dried grass will always create a WOW effect!

Care of Pampas grass 

• They should be displayed in a dry place without being exposed to direct sunlight.
• Use hairspray to protect the pampas.
• Vacuuming can be done in two ways: using a hair dryer set on the lowest setting with a cold blower, or using compressed air (such as for electronic devices).
