Patuxent Nursery has a wide variety of ornamental grasses and groundcovers for sale. Terms like Grasses and Groundcover can be misleading. Don’t let that scare you away from getting to know these two super-useful plant types. You see, groundcovers do more than cover bare earth, they provide a spark to an otherwise bland flower bed. Also used to edge walkways and fill in abnormal planting areas, groundcovers are invaluable to anyone’s yard. Ornamental Grasses provide a multi-level texture, coverage, and low-maintenance qualities for all to appreciate.
Ornamental Grasses have taken our culture by storm over the past 20 years. These are not grasses you use to create a lawn. Instead, they are a large family of perennial plants that offer year-round interest to your garden and landscape. The wide variety of choices make it easy to incorporate these easy to grow, low-maintenance beauties into any design. Our most popular grasses are Panicum, Miscanthus, and Pennisetum.
Groundcovers are plants that spread out, staying low to the ground. They provide colorful foliage to what would otherwise be a stark, dirt covered area.
