Ornamental Grasses

Ornamental Grasses are Decorative and Easy to Care For

Ornamental grasses come in annual and perennial varieties and there are a number of ornamental grass types. There are shade grasses, decorative grasses, native grasses, tall grasses like Karl Foerster, and shorter varieties like blue fescue. They also come in variegated, and solid colours ranging through yellow to blue to green.  Even in the dead of winter, dried ornamental grasses can add life and interest to your garden blowing in the wind.
