Description

In a growing space prepared for careful establishment, Start Japanese Forest Grass (Hakonechloa macra) from seed for ornamental borders. A site with full sun and moderately fertile, well-drained soil supports steady early development.

As the seed-starting period begins, Sow in prepared growing medium when it reaches the recommended germination range. Water moderately and prevent the soil from becoming waterlogged while seedlings establish, then thin crowded seedlings so the remaining plants have room and airflow, with a steady routine focused on day-to-day care after sowing.
