The
dwarf fountain grass is a great grass for a specimen or in mass plantings.
The leaves are narrow and arch, add to this seed-heads that resemble
bottle brushes which are a rose copper bristly head. It truly gives
a fountain like appearance.
Ornamental Grasses are
gaining in popularity all over the U.S. due to their undemanding nature
and long lasting, year round beauty. There is nothing that adds such
interesting forms, textures and movement to a garden, than with this
diverse plant group. They can be planted along banks of ponds, incorporated
into perennial gardens, grouped together, utilized as a ground cover
along walkways, paths or on steep banks. They aren't fussy about soil
requirements, are drought tolerant as well as insect and disease resistant
