How to grow maiden grass

When to plant maiden grass

Maiden grass is a clumping deciduous perennial grass. NC State directs you to cut the foliage down in late winter or early spring, just before or as new blades begin to appear, so set out new plants as that spring growth resumes. Note that NC State lists this species as invasive in North Carolina and suggests native alternatives; choose a low-fertility or sterile cultivar where seeding is a concern.

Maiden Grass is timed by season rather than your frost dates, so the planting calendar does not generate ZIP-specific dates for it. Check the cited sources below to fine-tune for your area.
