Amazing Ornamental Grasses for your Garden

Ornamental Grasses offer dramatic textures and movement to the garden. We are continually amazed at the impact grasses add to the landscape... and how easy they are to grow. Plant blue grasses with golden shrubs and vice versa for all year color interest.

Undoubtably the best all-around garden plant of all the Miscanthus species and cultivars. The narrow foliage has white variegated edges, making a wonderful 'light' in those areas that need some brightening up. The seed heads offer food for birds too!
