Cortaderia selloana ‘Green Goblin’ – Compact Pampas Grass with Soft, Silvery Plumes

Cortaderia selloana ‘Green Goblin’ is a refined and compact variety of pampas grass, offering all the drama of traditional varieties but in a more manageable form. With its lush, arching green foliage and graceful silver-white plumes that appear in late summer to autumn, it adds movement, height, and texture to garden borders, gravel gardens, or large containers. Unlike taller cultivars, ‘Green Goblin’ is ideal for smaller spaces while still delivering that classic ornamental grass elegance.

Key Features

• Height & Spread: Typically reaches 1.5–2.5m in height with a spread of about 2.5-4m.
  
• Growth Habit: Upright, clump-forming, and non-invasive.
