Mass plantings of grasses and strappy foliage plants add a great natural feel to garden spaces, and are a effective textural element to combine with perennial flowers and shrubs in our gardens. Grasses work well in both traditional gardens and contemporary settings, and are generally easy to grow and low maintenance. The key to success is choosing the right variety for your planting project as the plants all vary in size, growing requirements vigour and appearance. Below we have listed a range of species from Japan, America, New Zealand, as well as some of our own native species.
There are 5 products.
Strong upright variety great for amongst grasses and floral work. Best on drained soils. Cut to the ground in winter every 2-3 years when growth congested.
The usual form is silver but this variety has purple tinted leaves. Great in a large pot or tub, alternatively in the rock garden or border. Prefers well drained soil.
Excellent perennial grass from Japan. Like a compact "Sarabande" type but only around chest high. Typical feathery seed heads in autumn.
A perennial grass with fine silvery green foliage, colouring bronze in autumn. The flowers and seedheads are an attractive fan shape. Clumping and non-invasive.
Lovely fluffy flowering texture in summer providing great fill and a soft contrast. A great grass all round and in early stages grows much like 'Karl Forester' until flowering time, when it looks very different; responds best in heavier fertile soils, and to date doesnt seed here.
