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.

Tall Ornamental for Partial Shade

19 years ago

Does anyone have any suggestions for a taller (4ft plus) ornamental grass that would do well in partial shade? (I'm in zone 5.) So far, I've been able to find many smaller ones that would do well, but I'm looking to gain some privacy in this area, so the taller the better.
