Any idea what kind it is, SL?

Yes it looks like Stipa Tenuissima or angel hair, or Even Stipa Elegantissima they are virtually identical plants, but i would say that's the first one Stipa T.. great plants i have the same....

Thanks, SL...how tall do they get?
I hope I've got them in the right places! lol! :)

It gets about 2-3 foot , if it's really happy then maybe 3.5 feet tops, but once they are settled don't move them it hates it.. full sun it's happy... even part shade...

Might have to move that one then, before it gets settled...

It's in full sun and is probably too near the front...thanks for that, SL! :)

I never did before, Clarice...but, I've changed my mind since GoY! lol! :))

That makes 2 of us....in fact, there are so many things now growing in the garden that if you had asked me 1 year ago, I would have said 'never in my garden' :)

Hmm??...

...Exactly the same here!!!! :)))))

I have similar ones in my garden in the gravel part
(may even be the same, I don't know the name of mine - lost label!!)
& they seed themselves all over the place!!
I love them but I have to pull some of the seedlings up or my front garden would look like the wilderness!!!
Trouble is with all this rain we are having, they all flop over & look bedraggled!!
