Ornamental
landscape grasses vary in size, shape, color and texture in
both foliage and inflorescence (seed head). Ornamental grass
landscaping makes use of mature plants that range in height
from 6 inches to 14 or more feet. Grass forms vary from low
mounding to fountain shaped to tall vertical. Foliage color
includes shades of green, yellow, blue, red, brown and variegated
(green and white mixed).
Ornamental grass landscaping takes advantage of the displays
of grasses that change foliage color in the fall. Fall colors
of straw yellow, orange, red or purple are available. Landscape
grass foliage texture varies from fine to coarse (blade width
from 1/8 to 1/2 inch).
