Ornamental Grass In Your Landscape?

Ornamental Grasses make a great way to trim out your landscape! Best of all- low maintenance! Most grasses can tolerate drought, heat, and poor soil conditions. Add just a little TLC and you will be well rewarded.
Ornamental grasses look great in groupings by themselves or added into existing beds to add interest. Use them to separate groupings of other plants, background, or trim.
You can get just about any size or color you want.

Ornamental grasses contrast with broad-leaved plants beautifully, create pleasing movement with the lightest breeze, and perform beautifully even in less-than-ideal conditions.

This splendid pink-flowered Giant Fountain Grass is a joy from midsummer right through fall, sporting masses of swaying, shimmying plumes AND eye-catching golden fall foliage!

  1. I am so glad that you have done a segment on ornamental grasses. We added several spots of zebra grass in our front beds. It has turned out well. I must confess I was a little worried about their survival after their appearence from winter. But, they have come back with a vengence. We agree, and highly recommend them as well. Looking forward to your next postings.
