| If you mean Pennisetum messiacum for Bunny Tails, mine did not seed but it did spread so much that I shovel pruned it. It would come up a foot or more from the clump in all directions. |

| In my mind, Bunny Tails is Lagurus ovatus. |

| Never heard of it. The tag on my grass above read Bunny Tails Fountain Grass....Common names can be sooooo confusing! |

| I've grown Bunny Tails - Lagurus ovatus from seed, it is an annual grass in my zone and was not a vigorous grower nor did it reseed. Likely this Pennisetum shares the same common name? I agree common names are confusing, I make the effort to learn the botanical names of the plants I grow, otherwise it is impossible to really know what you're growing. |

| I Googled Pennisetum messiacum, and one of the more popular cultivars seems to be 'Red Bunny Tails.' |
