Now I'm careful to garb up before getting out there with my secateurs. I do like to chop the bracts off before the plants set seed -- as you say, they do like to spread themselves all over.<br />Your garden is gorgeous -- and it looks really well maintained, so tidy!materfamiliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062766947897513369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-29925119121663608602013-05-10T06:31:16.948-07:002013-05-10T06:31:16.948-07:00I agree with you - grasses are a wonderful part of...I agree with you - grasses are a wonderful part of any garden.

I did so before we had a deer fence, but the deer in this part of our community devoured it.<br />Your garden is looking lovely!Pondsidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02407539138546412482noreply@blogger.com
