Grasses
Ethereal, atmospheric, flexuous, and enchanting – they’re beguiling divas, (a little ‘Salomian’ even) and often quite difficult to photograph. Back down to earth, grasses tick all the sensory boxes, providing subtle movement, colour, and height. They’re an incredibly versatile group of plants. We’ve made sure we have a broad range of grasses that can be used to recreate evocative touches of a woodland, or a prairie; or indeed, something more defined from Japan, or expansive from the African savanna. Yes, we do have Pampas grass (many ask) – but given it’s legendary suburban connotation (and recognising this singular reference) we don’t like to brag about it.
