Ornamental Grass
Ornamental grasses are versatile plants that add texture and movement to the landscape. Most ornamental grasses are drought-tolerant once establihed, making them ideal for xeriscaping or low-maintenance gardens. They are commonly used in borders, as ground covers, or to create privacy screens. Their year-around appeal and minimal care requirements make them a favorite.
