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.
gone to pot :D

Mrs Ava

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.  :)

Mrs Ava

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.
