Splitting Tall Verigated Grass to Transplant to Other Areas

Dig around edges to loosen your root source. Decide how big you want your clumps to be. Move these to your new area, should have a hole about twice as wide and deep as your root ball, water the hole thourghly, place some soil on the bottom, place your clump, firm dirt around your root system, do not over pack your soil, you your roots to breath and have spaces for new growth. Water again, add some more soil, and enjoy. If you choose to fertilize, go light as some grasses are easily burnt. Hope this works for you.

Good Morning M., I checked on www.pallensmith.com
and found some information. Not sure what type of grass you have, we have pamas grass in our wild flower garden.

This is part of what the site says: Description
This grass grows in clumps with the blades remaining short, under 24", and vertical flower plumes that emerge early in the summer.
Planting tips
When planting ornamental grasses make sure the bed or container is deeply cultivated, at least 36 inches, to give the root systems room to grow down. Newly planted ornamental grasses need 1 inch of water weekly for the first growing season. After that they can be quite drought tolerant. Compost or humus is the only soil amendment needed. In later winter or early spring cut back dead growth and apply a slow release, all purpose fertilizer. This is a good time to divide overgrown clumps as well.

Our Pamas grass does grow in clumps so it's easy to see where to dig to remove or transplant. But according to this site now is the time to cut and transplant.

God Bless and Good luck with your grass's. I love spring time

I would think they would work just like hastas or daphadylls (sp???) Dig up the whole ball of plant and seperate. Some plants don't look very good for awhile when you do this but they should come around. Remember to water regularly.

It should be okay to get clumps off it with lots of roots to plant other places in your yard.I live in Cameron and am looking for various pampas grasses etc.etc.
