Grassland sedge (Carex divulsa)
Also known as: Grassland Sedge, Grey Sedge
Japanese forest grass (Hakonechloa macra) is a popular choice among gardeners due to its graceful, arching foliage. This clump-forming ornamental grass blooms in the summer and is often used in cottage gardens and as ground cover. Unlike some other grasses, it thrives in shaded areas, adding a lush, elegant touch to the landscape.
