Have you started noticing the new dried plant trend going on?!  

It seems everywhere I look on Instagram someone is making a stunning dried flower arrangement that has me in all kinds of plant envy.  I even started pinning Dried Flower Arrangements on Pinterest because honestly, some of them are just so gorgeous!

The other similar trend I have been seeing, is using dried ornamental grasses and even dried out palm fronds.  It seems like many of the ornamental grasses with big flower heads are the most popular; miscanthus grasses, dried wheat and golden grasses are favorites.  

However, far and away, I think the use of Pampas grass is picking up the most traction and I have to say – I just love it.  Did you see the STUNNING Dried Pampas Grass Wreath DIY I made?

What is Pampas Grass?

Cortaderia selloana, commonly known as pampas grass, is a flowering plant native to southern South America, including the Pampas region after which it is named.

It is one of the loveliest ornamental grasses that is often used as a large accent plant.  The tall, showy plumes have gorgeous autumn coloring that continue into winter, and are great in fresh or dried floral arrangements.

However, please note : Pampas grass spreads VERY easily.  Their gorgeous seed heads can bear up to a million seeds over its lifetime. The self-sowing seeds can sprout in almost any kind of soil, too.   And pampas grass will come back year after year.
