Introducing Stipa Capillata. Stipa capillata is a tufted perennial grass that is native to Europe and Asia. It typically grows in a clump to 2-3 tall with narrow, erect, blue-green leaf blades. Blooms in summer. Silvery-white flower panicles with hair-like awns to 5 long make this grass an attractive addition to the landscape. Sharply pointed seeds give rise to the common name of needle grass. Additional common names include spear grass and feather grass. It will seed so I always cut it back when seed are ripe.
