Grass Ident

I took this photo of a grass in a neighbourhood garden . Mrs H says that it would look very nice in the pebble pool .
Can anyone ID this , and give me any care pointers on it ?

TIA

 

I am by no means good at identifying grasses however I think it is a Pennisetum although which one I couldn't say but there are some very pretty cultivars around

 

Yes, looks like Pennisetum. A lot of garden centres have them for sale now, because of their 'winter interest' - go and wander around and see which one you like, because as Aesculus says, there are several different ones (and colours).

 

It looks very much like Pennisetum Villosum cream falls.

 

I hope your neighbour didn't see or mind you taking photos of there grasses. I know some folk can get funny about that sort of thing.

 

Thanks All for the identification. It seems to be as Axl states Pennisetum cream falls. :thmb: I'll find one in my local GC.
Mr Zen - my neighbours only get funny when I take a spade round and start digging their plants up ! :D
