Gardening Tip:
Ornamental grasses don’t require a functional purpose, however. They’re increasingly being used as specimen plantings where what they “say” is more important than what they “do.” Because they can be used in so many different settings and in so many different ways, they give gardeners the opportunity to express their individual personalities. Ornamental grass plantings bring a sense of unbridled nature to hard areas of stone, wood or concrete such as decks, patios and pools, turning an often harsh look into a softer, more enjoyable one.
FACT:
Compost, partially decomposed organic material used in gardening to improve soil and enhance plant growth. Compost improves the movement of water, dissolved nutrients, and oxygen through the soil, making it easier for plant roots to absorb these vital substances
