ORNAMENTAL GRASSES

At Courville Nurseries, we have thousands of ornamental grasses in stock, ready for both small gardens and large landscape projects.

What to Know About Ornamental Grasses
- Invasiveness - Some species spread aggressively. Stick to well-behaved varieties like Miscanthus, Switch grass, and Fountain Grass.
- Self-seeding - Certain types may reseed if not cut back. Removing plumes before seeds drop helps control spread.
- Winter dieback - Most ornamental grasses die back to the ground in winter. This is normal, and new growth returns in spring.
- Crowding - Over time, large clumps can die out in the middle; dividing prevents this.
