Introduce a haze of colour and ripples of movement to your planting scheme with effortlessly beautiful ornamental grasses. Drought tolerant and hugely on trend, easy-going grasses are high-impact in a border, driveway or gravel garden and ask for very little in return. Thriving in sandy, free draining or dry, poor soils, ornamental grasses are a great solution in areas where other plants may struggle. Perennial grass-like plants also form an attractive, airy screen without being antisocial. If you want your garden to look beautiful but don't have a lot of time to work on it, low maintenance ornamental grasses are the way forward.

From architectural miscanthus and softly swaying Pennisetum to airy Panicum and jewel-like Dierama, ornamental grasses bring movement, texture and light to every corner of the garden. Whether it’s the cool restraint of Sesleria, the autumnal glow of Andropogon, the vertical elegance of Calamagrostis or the dark, glossy notes of Ophiopogon, these grasses offer year-round beauty with effortless grace.
