My pampas grass needs a makeover. I'm sitting here looking at the 2 of them and they resemble Tina Turner's hair in Beyond Thunderdome... from the back. Or maybe Bowie in Labarynth. Anyway... they need work. Now, if you have never dealt with pampas grass, just imagine a six foot tall pile of 8' long, thin spring-steel blades sharpened to a razor's edge. Then dip them in some sort of skin irritant... oh yeah, serrate the edges a bit too... just for fun. Ok... NOW turn on one of those special effects wind machines and point it at the pile... and try to load those blades into a wagon... without getting cut to ribbons.
I saw a hint somewhere that I am going to try. Take duct-tape and wrap completely around the middle of the clump. Cut the clump off below the tape... you get a pre-wrapped bundle. We'll see........
