Grasses, Hardy Ornamental 
The several varieties of hardy ornamental grasses, that succeed in 
this climate, have not received the attention they deserve. Some are of

interesting, often variegated foliage, and still others grow in tufts only 
a few inches in height. Used in the mixed border, among _ shrubs, 
isolated lawn groups and in the rockery. The dried plumes should be

are desired for winter decoration.) This procedure will prevent them 
from shattering when in the house.
