My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Ornamental Grass

Perennial fountain grass

13 years ago

I've seen clumps of these locally that get around 6 feet tall. I need the true perennial type that'll survive a MO (zone 5) winter. What is the type I'd need?

Thanks!
