May 8, 2009, Newsletter Issue #240: Mid-height grasses

Tip of the Week

Mid-height grasses (40 to 80 centimeters) can be used in foundation planting or borders to add color and texture year-round. They can be used as an alternative to groundcovers on steep slopes or even narrow beds. Try planting Golden hakonechloa which will grow to 40 cm, requires sun, moist soil and is yellow/green in color.
