Wispy ornamental grasses are versatile plants in any landscape that can provide four seasons of interest.
- The most popular ornamental grass is feather reed grass. It offers a distance upright habit that looks fantastic all winter long.
- Fountain grass offers a graceful shape, plus soft, feathery plumes that dance in the breeze.
- Little Blue Stem is a lovely, tough-as-nails prairie native, little bluestem offers gray-green leaf blades that turn bold shades of purple, red, and orange in autumn.
- It’s tough to beat blue oat grass for a low-care plant with steel-blue color. It also has a tidy mounded habit and won’t spread and take over your garden.
- A good low-growing species, Japanese forest grass has a nearly-perfect mounding habit. Variegated selections have brightly colored foliage that light up shady corners.
