Some ornamental grasses get a bad rap. I may have one of those corralled in a tire planter. It’s of the zebra varieties. I also have one of yours, and M. Malepartus.

Hi Susan, I have that same grass and love it. I agree it is not invasive at all and the flower feather heads are so graceful and winter well. Good all around plant.

Beautiful grass, Susan. Maybe I can find a way to work it into the landscape. Right now, I’m being content with my Calamagrostis ‘Karl Forster’ and my Pennisetum orientale – don’t know if it’s Karley Rose or not, but I sure do like it. I’m so glad I’ve discovered the wonderful world of grasses!

I love my miscanthus ‘cosmopolitan’. It’s putting on a great show right now. As for eragrostis…out with it! It’s seeding everywhere, so I’m shovel pruning that one! Great blog, adding yours to my blogroll. Happy Gardening! Cameron
