Boho home decor is still on the rise. Arched wicker bookshelves, eclectic rugs and oversized houseplants are staples of this decorating style. And at the heart of it all? Pampas grass. Here are a few of our favorite pampas grass decor ideas that add a touch of boho to any space.
What Is Pampas Grass?
Native to South America, pampas grass is a tall, fluffy plant that thrives in warmer temperatures. It comes in a variety of colors, and can grow up to 10 feet high and wide. Plants take up to three years to bloom and create those soft, Instagram-worthy plumes.
For interior decorating purposes, we recommend using dried or faux pampas grass. Stems are widely available online or at craft stores. (Here’s how to find the best grocery store flowers.)
Pampas Grass Decor Ideas
Pampas grass is so versatile and looks stylish in a variety of rooms. Here are three easy ways to decorate with pampas grass and bring this dreamy trend into your home.
Pampas Grass Bouquet
Bouquets are one of the most popular pampas grass decor ideas. Pampas grass looks stunning on its own, but you can also find it in an arranged bouquet—peeking above a mix of other dried flowers like eucalyptus, fuzzy bunny tails and palms. Some even have pops of color like greens, oranges and pinks.
No matter which style you choose, place your bouquet inside a funky colored plant pot or a clear glass vase. (Learn more about the best vase shapes for your flower arrangement.)
Pampas Grass Wreath
There’s nothing more welcoming than a pampas grass wreath. Whether you’re looking for a traditional all-pampas wreath or a sophisticated hanger adorned with beads, ribbon and other dried flowers, we’ve pulled a variety of pretty options.
Add one to your front door for a classic look. Or, get creative and hang any of these wreaths in an unconventional place, like above a bed in the master bedroom or in your little one’s nursery.
Pampas Grass Clouds
Here’s a pampas grass decor item that’s sure to impress: a pampas grass cloud! These pampas “chandeliers” float above the room, similar to a cloud.
Commonly found hanging above dining room tables and in cozy bedroom nooks, these arrangements know how to make a statement. (That’s why you can find them as wedding centerpieces, too!) Just attach to the ceiling with twine to transform any room into a dreamy oasis. (Psst! To make your flower arrangements look more professional, try this viral tape trick.)

Best Overall Flower Subscription
The Bouqs Co.
Topping our list of best flower subscriptions, The Bouqs Co. is a modern florist delivering farm-fresh flowers cut to last much longer than traditional bouquets. You'll always have something to look forward to by signing yourself (or a loved one) up for a monthly subscription, which is arguably the best deal The Bouqs Co. offers as it grants up to 30% off bouquets compared to ordering arrangements over and over. All you have to do is choose between original (10-16 stems), deluxe (20-32 stems) or grand (30-45 stems). Then, sit back, relax and wait for your seasonal arrangement to arrive! Speaking of, here's how to arrange flowers, according to a pro. "My Bouqs bouquet arrived in an impeccable shape. We had been experiencing an autumn heat wave, yet my blooms came fresh—no wilting in sight!" shares Taste of Home's Senior Shopping Editor, Katie Bandurski. "They were easy to unwrap and arrange in the included vase. While a bit of a craft project, it was fun to trim the stems and put my own twist on the arrangement of lilies, white roses, snapdragons and greenery. (I was impressed that some of the more fragile buds, like hydrangea heads, were double-wrapped for protection.) I've been enjoying my Bouqs for over five days, and they're still going strong! Many mail-order flowers I've received have a shorter lifespan than florist arrangements or even grocery store blooms, but I continue to be amazed at how long my flowers from The Bouqs Co. last."

- Flowers are sourced from eco-friendly farms
- Multiple subscription plans and bouquet options

Taste of Home Shopping Editor, Annamarie Higley, notes, “My 1-800 Flowers bouquet, which came from a local shop called Bayside Garden Center, absolutely delighted the maximalist in me. It was a cornucopia of textures and colors, and every bloom seemed to be at its best upon arrival. The yellow cockscomb was my favorite of the bunch—I’ve never seen anything like it. I’m blown away by the size, variety and presentation.” By the way, these best 1-800-Baskets gifts offer something for everyone on your list this holiday season. Pros- Affordable price point
