Ornamental grasses are a really versatile group of plants that can be planted for a range of uses. Some of the more delicate grasses can be planted in pots to soften the look of a patio, whereas some of the larger varieties can bring an exotic touch to borders. They come in a range of colours, with many having variegated leaves, and they are perfect for accent planting when you plant different coloured grasses alongside each other.

Festuca Elijah Blue
Grass
The 'Elijah Blue' is a wonderfully compact ornamental grass which forms a neat mound at a low level. The slender leaves are sharp to touch and are a wonderful glaucous blue colour. This perennial looks particularly striking when it is planted alongside a darker plant such as the 'Uncinia Rubra'. A great choice for a border or bed.

Festuca glauca Intense Blue
Intense Blue Festuca
Common Name: Intense Blue Festuca Latin Name: Festuca glauca 'Intense Blue' Soil: Fertile, moist, well-drained soil Position: Full sun Flowering period/colour: Summer/ Blue flower spikes Hardiness: Hardy Eventual height/spread: 0.3m/ 0.2m Special features: Striking silvery blue leaves. The 'Intense Blue' injects an explosion of steely blue colour into any garden and it’s the perfect choice for planting in a pot on a sunny patio. The very fine leaves are highly ornamental and they form a wispy mound. In summer blue-green flower spikes add further interest and these age to a straw-like texture. As the name suggests, the colour is intense and therefore makes a fantastic accent plant for any of the darker grasses: we love it alongside the Carex testacea as the two plants have fine leaves, but with contrasting colours.

Helictotrichon sempervirens
Blue Oat Grass
The Helictotrichon sempervirens, which is commonly known as the blue oat grass, is a wonderful ornamental grass that looks great in a gravel border. It features a fountain of blue-grey leaves which are evergreen and therefore hold their colour all year round. In summer, a further interest is added with the golden spikelets which appear in June-July.
