Let's set aside all the current world drama and talk about a subject that actually needs to be discussed: ornamental grasses.
What are the rules for ornamental grasses?
- house-height to grass-height ratio
- pairing with evergreens
- minimum/maximum circumference of a single stand of grass
Who decides whether a grass is ornamental or...whatever is the alternative to ornamental?
If I find a particular grass unattractive, does that make it non-ornamental?
Are ornamental grasses as low-maintenance as they are touted to be?
Have we collected statistics on how many people understand that low-maintenance doesn't mean no-maintenance?
Do folks who fail to low-maintain their low-maintenance ornamental grasses recognize that said failure results in their ornamental grasses becoming non-ornamental?
If an ornamental grass is planted near an unornamental home, does this upgrade the house or downgrade the grass?
How many ornamental grasses are too many ornamental grasses?
Allow these questions lead you into a deeper examination of the world of ornamental grasses, and next time we'll address other topics of importance such as mandolins, Jeremy Renner, and southern accents.
