Nice fluffy stuff lol. I was never much of a fan of grasses (or flaxes come to that) .... now I have put several lovely flax plants in the garden & I always look for them when I visit a GC ..... have not put in any ornamental grasses yet, but I have seen a totally awesome one pictured in a cataloque which I am sure to order one day very soon.

My Hameln didn't flower this year....I think it was just too blooming cold and wet for grasses up here this year. The Red Sedge did well though.

I'm a fairly new admirer of grasses.At GC my eye is always drawn to them now.It's what you can see through them that's just as lovely.

Hi Meadowland - yes they're are some really nice grasses - some are very underrated - not many have RHS awards :(
