Ornamental Grasses
Ornamental grasses are versatile plants that can provide beauty throughout all four seasons in any garden or landscape. These grasses are valued for their hardiness, ease of care, rapid growth, dramatic wispy appearance, and the wide variety of colors and sizes. They can be planted for many different purposes. They can be used as accent plants in the landscape, in perennial borders, to add privacy or even container plantings. Some grasses can even help with erosion control. Check out these ornamental varieties to try in your garden. You will love how they look moving gracefully in a breeze.
