Special Order Perennial Grasses
Ornamental grasses are ones that you (usually) don't mow. They are grown for their leaves and their seed heads. Many can be harvested in fall and dried for winter arrangements.
My suppliers have a few annual grasses. They are included in the Annuals page.
Note that on the small sizes of these, in 3.5 and 4.5 inch pots there is a minimum order of 4 of a given type.
