Time to trim the grasses!
  The three grasses in the pots are Japanese grass, miscanthis, and sea oats. Ornamental Grass Photos from 2006Here's a long shot and close ups of each from last year. As you can see, I used the grasses as a way to partially enclose a courtyard.   Japanese grass  Sea oats  Miscanthis Last year I was a bit disappointed in the Japanese grass at the end of the summer. It was scraggly and had definitely lost its charm. In reading up on grasses, however, I found that I should have trimmed it in the middle of the summer. It's supposed to be cut six inches above the base. According to my source, it will grow back in 6 to 12 weeks. Today I cut some seeds off when I trimmed back the grasses. I hope I can get them to come up, as I could definitely use more of these beautiful, graceful grasses as accents around my property.   Cher |
