Sometimes it is good to leave plants alone for the winter.

I think this is stipa gigantica or something along those lines, and it looks wonderful in the mornings all frosted!
miscanthus?
do agree with you, whatever it is!
I don't think it's stipa gigantica - the seed heads on that arch over and droop down a bit more. Tis lovely, though - kind of looks like really big wheat.
aha, miscanthus me thinks.....another from my grandads garden and he tells me what all of the lumps of root are when he digs them up, and I promptly forget! ;D
You ought to have a notebook handy then EJ.
Great pic tho'. I like grasses. :)
Ahhh Richard, there are lots of things I should do, but with 2 children at your heels, stepdaughter at your shoulder and grandad nattering away.......names of plants seem rather unimportant.
But with your lovely 'handyman' bringing you trays & glasses of goodies all the while?? = Tim
PS - As to the grasses - do agree.
