Zebra Grass - Bold Stripes for Your Garden
About the Bloom
Zebra Grass may not produce blooms, but its striking foliage more than makes up for it. This ornamental grass features long, slender leaves with distinctive horizontal stripes resembling a zebra's coat. The foliage adds a unique texture and visual interest to any garden, creating a dramatic focal point throughout the year.
What to Know About the Plant
Zebra Grass is a deciduous grass that goes dormant in the winter, providing a rest period before regrowing in the spring. Its leaves are a mix of green and creamy white stripes, creating a stunning contrast in the landscape. This grass can reach heights of 4-7 feet, making it a tall and impressive addition to borders, beds, or as a standalone specimen.
Enhancing your Fruitscape
Pair Zebra Grass with fruit trees like Cherry, Plum, or Apricot for a vibrant and lush fruitscape. The bold stripes of the grass complement the colorful fruits of these trees, creating a visually appealing contrast. Berry plants such as Blackberries or Raspberries also work well with Zebra Grass, adding a touch of sweetness and texture to your landscape design. For a tropical twist, consider mixing Zebra Grass with Pineapple Guava or Passionfruit vines to create an exotic oasis in your garden. Herbs like Mint or Thyme can also be planted alongside Zebra Grass, providing a fragrant and flavorful addition to your outdoor space.

Landscaping with Grasses
These grasses are so incredibly lovely to use in the landscape because they can be used in so many ways. They can border a bed or be the centerpiece. They can be scattered throughout to create tuffs of texture to contrast your shrubs and trees. Or they can be neatly mixed in with flowers to accentuate the colors and shapes. We love these grasses because of all the fun we have planting them and watching them grow to be such a joy.
Recommended Fertilizers for Planting and Maintenance
- Starter Fertilizer:  Plant with Espoma Organic Bio-tone® Starter Plus. This will increase root mass and help avoid transplant loss in difficult planting conditions.
- Fertilizer to Maintain: Grasses will do well when fertilized each year with Espoma Organic Palm-tone Fertilizer
Growing Guide
Currently, we only have growing guides for our edible plants.  We are working on them for our ornamental & landscaping plants, and will add them in the near future. Contact us if you have questions on how to plant and nurture your Grasses, and we will be glad to have one of our gardeners assist you.
Ornamental & Landscaping Plants at Just Fruits & Exotics
Although Just Fruits and Exotics has been providing ornamental and landscaping plants to customers at our nursery since we added “Exotics” to our name in the 1990’s, we never had them available to our customers online.
However, September of 2018, with the launch of our updated Just Fruits and Exotics website, we added many of our ornamental and landscaping plants to our online store for our customers nationwide.  We encourage you to “Fruitscape†your yards, mixing edibles and ornamentals to make your own edible garden.

Shipping Information
Before Your Plants Arrive: You can find many guides on unpacking, planting, & care, on our growing guides page.
The Journey From Our Nursery to Your Door: We NEVER ship our plants bare root. Your plant will travel in the very container in which it was nurtured. We thoroughly prune and water them before packing, and make sure they’re well wrapped to retain moisture during transit. It’s as though you’ve personally collected them from our nursery!
Choose Your Ship Date: We understand you’ll want to be available when your plant arrives. Our checkout process features a handy calendar that allows you to choose the Monday on which you want your plant to ship. Depending on your location, you’ll likely receive your plant by Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday of that week. Once shipped, UPS will generate a tracking number and send it to the email you provided. You can then follow your plant’s journey and ensure someone is available to unpack it on arrival day.
