The sun is shinning at full blast, and it's got me thinking Spring planting.
I really want to bring color to the yard this year.
Anyone have pompas grass? I'm afraid it may get too big, but I like it. Advice?
Other than that, just cleaning.
Happy Saturday!

We had some grasses that were much smaller. I think the total height was 2-3 feet. It was very pretty. But when the patio went in the grasses were not saved.
I have seen them in whites, pinks, corals, and purples.
I think the soil has a lot to do with the color.

My sister texted me last night. My niece and her guy secretly planned a wedding, called them and told them to show up at city hall. Easy peasy, boom! I'm so glad they did it! They have an 11 month old and she's 4 months pregnant.

It can get big. I see lots of people who cut it down to maybe 6 inches high and then it fills back in pretty quickly.

From what I'm reading, they get as big around as they are tall.
That's one reason I'm hesitating at getting some.

I missed this.
Happy for them!

Ornamental grass should always be cut down to ground level in the fall. Amazing how much bigger it will grow the next year.
We have monkey grass, it's a really pretty, dark green, with bright purple berries/seeds.
We cut it back every year, and it comes back thicker every time.

Some grasses can get rather tall. It's great if you have something you want to screen out. Some can be evasive as well. Just check the growth habits before you chose.
I hope y'all in the north are gearing up some back up heat sources in case you lose power. It's going to get deathly cold this week.

I was being serious! I'm worried about y'all!
Awwwww thanks but I'll be okay for sure. No problem. I'm use to this. I remember the first year I moved to upstate NH. It was the coldest winter they had there in probably over 50 years. The average daytime temp for almost two months ranged from - 30 to -50. That was my welcome to NH. Where I'm at now doesn't even come close to that. lol
I hate power outages. I was particularly scared when there was a storm and the boys were sick and needed power for their nebulizer. Last year we lost power for days and it was so cold we had to stay elsewhere. I love my generator.
We have always had an alternative way to heat if power goes out.
The funny thing, our house is connected to the county barn across the road, and since they use that as staging for any and all weather happenings, we get power before anyone else around.
So neighbors have come here in the past.
