ORNAMENTAL GRASSES FOR DECORATIONS 
Cultivation. — The annual varieties should be sown out of doors during April, where they are intended to flower, or for 
earlier work sow under glass and plant out. The perennial varieties are best sown during summer, and planted out in 
borders in spring. The flower heads should be cut in a young stage and hung upside down to dry, as they are then more 
lasting for decorative purposes. Varieties marked thus * will not bloom the first year from seed.
