Grasses give a wonderful sense of mobility and a beautiful, gentle sound in the garden. They are wonderful with perennials in a border, as part of a prairie planting, or even in containers. The quality of their flower- and seed-heads is enhanced when they’re back-lit by the sun, and persisting seed-heads look entrancing when frosted.
Read more about choosing and growing grasses as well as perennials and grasses for early-autumn color in our advice section.
There are cool-season grasses, which flower by midsummer, and warm-season grasses, which flower in late summer or autumn. Generally, we will have a selection throughout the year. Many grasses will die back in the winter (sometimes to ground level) and then regrow next spring.
