@kimguy I picked up pompus grass at the nursery last spring and put it in my wagon. A couple minutes later I had a really bad rash on my arm. Not absolutely sure if that's what caused it so I didn't buy it. I LOVE the beautiful tufts on the top of it l, but I'm kind of scared to touch it again lol.

I get scratch up alot with it , I believe from the grass leaves being so rough. But I all get itchy and rashy when I work in the garden. Of course I won't wear long sleeves .lol .

I've heard once pampas grass takes hold, tho, you can't hardly keep it contained. I think I like the maiden grass better. And I have enough poison ivy, I don't need to intentionally plant anything else itchy! Chrissy, @kimguy @cyndi
