Catalogues carried no seeds for these grasses. Little by little this has changed until now, there is a decent amount of information at hand and a better selection of grasses available. The more I learned about grasses, the more I realized that I was going to have to broaden my descriptive adjectives. These are just a few of the ways to describe grasses. There is hardly a category in which one could not find a few, if not many grasses.
Grasses are annuals, perennials and biennials.
Some grasses grow in shade and some in sun. Some are low growing mat forming and some grow quite tall. Grasses vary in growth habit as well as temperature requirements. There are grasses that grow in water and those that tolerate drought well. Some grasses are particularly good at stabilizing soil and some have been known for thousands of years as good forage.
