There is at least one grass to beautify every corner of the garden and every corner of the garden is suitable for growing grasses. Adopt these plants with multiple attractions to give life and structure to your environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Their pollination is carried out by the wind.\u00a0You will meet annual or\u00a0perennial\u00a0decorative species, not to mention\u00a0bamboos\u00a0which produce woody stems (hard as wood) and are intermediate with shrubs.\u00a0However, all grasses regrow from their stump, at least the perennial species.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dimensions:<\/strong>\u00a0variable: from a few centimeters, for grassy forms, to more than two meters for\u00a0miscanthus, Provence cane,\u00a0pampas grasses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Flowering: <\/strong>grasses do not, strictly speaking, form flowers, but spikelets that are not very colorful, greenish, which last for a long time, taking on pretty beige to golden colors.\u00a0The first blooms appear from March-April and the last, autumnal, often last until the heart of winter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hardiness:<\/strong> most varieties are hardy. However, splendid exotic species and varieties deserve to be cultivated as annual plants for summer settings or acclimatized in mild regions. This is the case with Pennisetum setaceum<\/em> such as ‘Rubrum’ or ‘Fireworks’ with leaves variegated with purple or highlighted with pink, canes from Provence (Arundo donax),<\/em> the large Erianthus ravennae<\/em>or sugar cane ( Saccharum officinarum<\/em> ) including the superb purple variety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Invasive or not<\/strong> : No need to add fertilizers for the good health of the grasses.\u00a0They are generally satisfied with the reserves of the soil to thrive.\u00a0Shade or damp earth species will however appreciate a contribution of organic matter when planting: potting soil,\u00a0compost, dehydrated manure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Grown in healthy soil and a well-ventilated atmosphere, grasses are rarely diseased. With excess humidity, rust can settle on blue oats or fescues. Drain the land to compensate for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For evergreen grasses such as\u00a0Stipa tenuifolia,<\/em>\u00a0the\u00a0Deschampsia,<\/em>\u00a0or blue oat, content yourself, in late winter, combing tufts of manually using a glove to remove dead leaves.\u00a0The tufts of deciduous grasses will be cut back as late as possible (in winter) in order to benefit from their decorative culms for a long time in winter.\u00a0Clean the clumps as soon as the stems weaken.\u00a0Wait March-April to\u00a0cut back the\u00a0semi-hardy and acclimatized\u00a0grasses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Many grasses have inflorescences which keep wonderfully in\u00a0dry clumps.\u00a0Do not hesitate to experiment with compositions taking advantage of the great diversity of their golden or silver inflorescences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Strain\u00a0division\u00a0is widely used to propagate interesting species and varieties.\u00a0It is best practiced in spring, when the plants start to grow again, failing which in September.\u00a0So they are able to form new roots quickly and in abundance in hot soil. Grass species are innumerable and difficult to differentiate in nature.\u00a0In the garden, we recognize them because they are monocots (recognizable by their parallel veins) and their flowers are primary and not very colorful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Grasses (of the Poaceae family) are ubiquitous on all continents.\u00a0These plants are popular in contemporary gardens where they instill a natural, wild and lively note.\u00a0They are appreciated there for their silhouette, their sometimes colored foliage, their flowering, and their fall colors.

There are three categories of grasses.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhen to sow<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Thus, their graceful vegetation marks the rhythm of the seasons.
The flexibility of their culms (stems), their foliage, and their inflorescences is magnified by the wind, then by the frost.\u00a0They also lighten the massifs by finding their place, according to the species and varieties, either in the shade or in the sun, in dry as in damp earth, in the South or the North of the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\nGrasses for light in dry ground<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
