Poa poiformis, commonly known as Coastal Tussock Grass, is a tough, clumping native grass ideal for exposed coastal and windswept landscapes. It provides year-round structure, erosion control, and a soft, natural look with minimal maintenance.
✔ Extremely hardy native - Thrives in wind, salt spray, and poor coastal soils.
✔ Dense clumping habit - Forms strong tussocks that help stabilise soil and dunes.
✔ Low-maintenance - Requires very little care once established.
✔ Year-round structure - Keeps its form and colour throughout the seasons.
✔ Wildlife friendly - Provides shelter and habitat for small native animals and birds.
✅ Coastal gardens - Perfect for beachfront, seaside, and exposed locations.
✅ Erosion control planting - Ideal for slopes, embankments, and sandy soils.
✅ Mass planting - Creates a natural, flowing grassland effect when planted in groups.
✅ Native landscapes - Complements other Australian native plants beautifully.
Spacing: Plant 60 to 80cm apart for strong individual tussocks. For faster coverage and soil stabilisation, plant closer together and consider adding extra plants.
