The Grass Isn't Always Greener... on the Wild Side of the Fence
Go wild and go natural. More and more gardeners are finding out why ornamental grasses are so popular. Beyond the environmental bonuses, natural grasses can add beautiful color and texture to your garden, in more than the typical shades of green.
Initially, natural grasses became common landscape elements because of their drought tolerance and a growing philosophical trend toward native plants. While still wise options for those reasons, natural grasses have some very clear benefits for any gardener.
| First,
they’re beautiful. Available in a wide range of textures and
shapes, and in a variety of rich earth tones, natural grasses are
wonderful landscape plants. They provide a graceful, peaceful look.
Additionally, because they are indigenous to our area, they have a
natural resistance to many types of common pests. And last, the fact
that they're drought tolerant hints at these ornamental grasses naturally
low maintenance requirements. |
