I have a marvellous pampas grass but it is eating my small lawn. Is it possible to trim the underside so that I can have both the pampas grass and the the lawn in its present shape?

I burn mine off every Spring, you can do it know I did mine about a month age. set fire to all the dead stuff and the new green shoots will come through fresh.
