Cortaderia selloana belongs to the Poaceae family and is commonly called "Pampa grass". It is an ornamental herb of fast growth, in fact it can reach up to 2 m height as an adult; Greggio Vivai cultivates this variety in pots, along with similar cultivars Cortaderia selloana Pumila and Cortaderia selloana Rosea.

Cortaderia Selloana looks like a soft and flexible bush, with persistent, long, arched leaves of green color. His flowers are very scenic, they are large white feathers with silver reflections, supported by long erect stems, appear between August and October.

This ornamental grass is not suitable for small gardens, but is perfect for medium-large gardens, public parks or near lakes. Given its size, Cortaderia Selloana can be planted individually or together with other essences.
