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

New grass seed!

20 years ago

I guess I can't get enough. Yesterday's mail brought me:

Big Sacaton (Sporobolus wrightii)

Big Bluestem (Andropogon gerardii)

Little Bluestem (Andropogon scoparius or Schizachyrium scoparium, which is it?)

My understanding is that none of them require cold stratification, so I'm going to sow them now.

Any experience with these?
