Eleocharis acicularis 'Mini' is most commonly used as a foreground carpeting plant due to its short height. A popular technique is to blend the mini hair grass with another carpeting plant species in order to create a pleasing natural texture.
To keep your Eleocharis acicularis looking its best, provide medium to high light. In low-light conditions it will start to etiolate and grow too tall to work as a carpeting plant. Extra nutrients in the form of root tabs, Co2 and liquid plant food are definitely appreciated.
