Taking care of your

Ornamental grasses

Grasses are an excellent addition to any garden or landscape. They are versatile, low-maintenance, and provide a variety of benefits, such as erosion control and wildlife habitat. When selecting grasses, consider the climate and soil conditions in your area, as well as your goals for your garden or landscape.

Here some general instructions on taking care of your Ornamental grasses:

  • Watering:

    Grasses are generally drought tolerant, but they do need water to establish and maintain healthy growth. Water deeply and infrequently to encourage deep root growth. The frequency of watering will depend on the specific type of grass and the climate in your area.

  • Fertilizing:

    Grasses benefit from regular fertilizing to maintain healthy growth and vibrant colour. Apply a slow-release fertilizer in the spring and fall, following the manufacturer's instructions.

  • Pruning and trimming:

    Some grasses benefit from periodic pruning or trimming to remove dead or damaged leaves and promote new growth. However, others may benefit from being left alone to develop their natural form. Research the specific type of grass you must determine the best approach.

  • Controlling pests and diseases:

    Some grasses may be susceptible to pests or diseases, so it's important to keep an eye out for any signs of damage or discoloration. Treat any problems promptly with organic or chemical treatments as needed.

  • Soil preparation:

    Grasses generally prefer well-draining soil with plenty of organic matter. Before planting, amend your soil with compost or other organic matter to improve drainage and provide nutrients for healthy growth.

  • Mulching:

    Applying a layer of mulch around your grasses can help conserve moisture, regulate soil temperature, and suppress weed growth. Use a natural mulch like wood chips or shredded leaves and apply a layer several inches thick around the base of your grasses.
