CARE

In the autumn, give some organic fertilizer. In spring, prune back significantly, to 5-10 cm above the ground. Also then, give some organic fertilizer to stimulate growth and flowering.

Divide the plant every 4-5 years and replant the younger parts to keep the plant healthy.

SPOT IN THE GARDEN

Plant Melica ciliata in a sunny spot in well-drained soil. The plant prefers to be a little too dry rather than wet. It can also be planted well in a rock garden. The plant is very hardy. Only prune back in spring. If you do this before winter, you will damage the plant.
