Pennisetum purpureum

Napier Grass Usage Information

In Terrariums: Aerial roots add a real jungle effect to terrariums. They appear similar to bamboo but with the added bonus of the roots.

In Vivariums: Works great for that jungle feel, but it also looks interesting for an imitated river and beech wood type vibe. This grass is generally considered safe.

In Aquariums: Untested by us. It is fed to cows, but we have not tested in water environments.

General Appearance: Looks superficially like bamboo. Older segments have very aesthetic aerial roots one each node.

Long Term: In wet vivaria with soil and creatures that eat decomposing matter expect 1-3 years out of this grass on the soil.

Other: For decorative arts & crafts related purchases, please let us know and we can quote the price for other forms of the products. For example, sun dried, machine dried, pressed (flat), whole dried for arrangements etc. Depending on production method, prices will vary as to the needs of the order.
