'Ornamental Grasses'
Ornamental grasses have deservedly become very popular in the garden.   In this talk we discuss how and why to grow them in the garden.   We describe the large selection of grasses which can be grown for their foilage , for their flowers, or both.   We show pictures of a wide range of grasses differing in their size, foliage colour and variegation, and the different types of flowers and seed heads.   Other topics covered includes the cultural requirements of grasses and growing them in containers.
