Koeleria macrantha aka June Grass

Caring for June Grass is a breeze, as it is highly adaptable and forgiving to minor neglect.

June Grass should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

June Grass loves a well-draining soil. Perlite and vermiculite help with drainage, while coco coir adds organic matter, so a good potting soil mix will have all three. You can improve store-bought soil by adding some perlite to it.

To ensure optimal growth, the June Grass prefers bright indirect light for 6-8 hours each day. Insufficient light can result in slow growth and leaf drop, so it's important to find a well-lit location for this plant. Place it near a window, within a distance of 1 meter (3 feet), to enhance its potential for thriving.

There is no verified data on the toxicity of this plant in the records of Ploi. If any person, including yourself, a family member, or a pet, consume plant material with an uncertain toxicity level, it is advisable to seek the advice of a healthcare expert.

The June Grass is characterized by its slow growth and doesn't need fertilization in addition to its potting soil. By renewing the soil in its pot once a year, it should have enough nutrition. Remember, plants get their energy from sunlight, not from any fertilizers.

Clumping is a defining characteristic of the June Grass, with new growth appearing from the soil surrounding the primary plant.

June Grass’s native range is Northern temperate zone, including Britain, between latitudes 37° and 60° N.
