Ornamental Grasses

A must have for prairie gardens and wildflower meadows but equally lovely in their own right, grasses are having quite the resurgence! These glamorous foliage plants keep their looks all year round, creating a sense of calm and softening showier plants. Easy to grow and care for, they're a great choice for low maintenance and city gardens, bringing depth and texture to pots, borders and wildlife habitats.

I continue to be so impressed with Roots. Their customer care, knowledge of their subject: from planting hedges to pruning roses and more, has been a great support.
