Grassy ornamentals for shady gardens

Article Abstract:

If one gardens in shade, it does not mean that one cannot grow grasses and grasslike plants, and some of the shade tolerant species should be tried. With the varied choices, it is clear that gardeners do not have to give up their big shade trees to grow ornamental grasses, and this is a chance to enlarge the gardens' plant palette with some stunning ornamentals that like shade.
