The right ornamental grass is an easy grower that adds sound and light to your lawn and garden. The problem with many ornamental grasses is they often grow too well. Self-sowing miscanthus can quickly overtake a garden.
Ornamentals such as fox-tail barley (Hordeum jubatum), blue oat grass (Helictotrichon sempervirens), or tufted hair grass (Deschampsia cespitosa) are less aggressive, yet display fountains of foliage perfect for borders and barriers. While not a true grass, sedge is a hardy, grass-like perennial that grows across a wide range of environments. - Next: Marvelous Moonflower
