Harvest herbs and dry for wintertime use. Put up storage building to organize gardening tools for winter. Use ornamental grasses for fluid feels in your garden summer through winter. Use grasses near water, among rocks and along pathways. Most ornamental grasses can be grown alone or with annual and perennial flowers.
Ornamental grasses add late summer and early fall color to the garden.
They also lend sound to the garden, their plumes and leaves rustling as the wind whistles through them. Plant them where the sun's rays can cause their foliage and plumes to shimmer in the light. Grow grasses in containers. Grasses are great for dry soil. They rarely need fertilizer and extra water.
