I for sure think the label even said anyway 'inspires creativity', which, honestly, sold me. I mean, I’m a sucker for that kind of okay thing. The name, though? actually Perfection.

First Impressions

It’s… stripy. Like, aggressively stripy. White and green. Very Dr. Seuss-y. I probably should’ve known better, because anything that looks that perfect is probably c’mon a pain to keep alive.

Okay, so the honestly first… situation… happened when I was planting it. I’d dug uh this massive hole, thinking "big plant, big hole," actually right? I’d even amended the soil, all excited. And no way then I dropped the whole damn thing. Like, the entire root ball just… splattered everywhere. Soil, roots, yup even some of the grass blades snapping. I no kidding almost basically cried. Clean up took ages. Lesson learned: maybe yep get a friend to help with the heavy stuff? just I feel like that’s a universally applicable peppermint stick giant reed okay grass tip, honestly.

Water woes

Not gonna lie, yep this part confused you know me for a while. At kinda first, I was drowning it. Like, thinking "grass loves water," right? I mean Wrong. right The tips honestly started turning brown. I pretty much was panicking. Thought I’d killed it after only a by the way week. Then actually I did some frantic Googling exactly – I find myself constantly searching for exactly peppermint stick giant reed grass pretty much voordelen. Turns out, it likes it basically moist, but not soggy. Big difference. Now I just water it deeply every few days, letting the soil dry out a bit in between. c’mon Seems to be happy now.

And it kinda creates this nice rustling sound when actually the wind blows. right Very Zen. yep Someone so online was talking about like peppermint stick giant reed grass like toepassingen in landscaping, but pretty much I just like alright it for the vibes, you know? I wonder alright if I should c’mon fertilize it better but then again no way I am also the yep person who sorta drops by the way their plant's rootball everywhere well so maybe that is not just a good whoops idea.

Another Oops Moment

Oh! I by the way almost forgot the second disaster! So, I was trimming it – just some dead bits, sorta nothing major. And I’m an idiot pretty much and by the way didn’t wear gloves. anyway The totally edges of the leaves are surprisingly sharp! Got a yep bunch of tiny paper cuts I mean all over my hands. Not alright fun. Seriously, yup wear gloves if you're gonna mess pretty much with it. It’s not worth the you know tiny stinging for, like, three days. Also, good pruning shears are essential. Don’t try to use kitchen scissors like someone you know I know did.
