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.
