Cloud Grass

Cloud Grass (Agrostis) - A family of grasses, the annual kinds graceful when dried. There are some half a dozen kinds grown, the best A. nebulosa, forming delicate tufts about 15 inches high, and is useful for rooms. If cut shortly before the seed ripens and dried in the shade, it will keep for a long time. The seed may be sown either in September or in April or May, and lightly covered. A. Steveni, multiflora, and plumosa require the same treatment. A. Spicaventi is very graceful, especially if grown from selfsown seeds. A. pulchella is also useful for the same purpose, dwarfer and stiffer than A. nebulosa.
