The only grasses that I am aware of that grow in some shade are inland seaoats and Virginia (or Canadian) wild rye. I have tried growing wild rye from seed with no luck. I believe it is an annual. I had decent luck growing sideoats gram\a under my oak tree. It is not overly showy unless you are looking at the flowers up close.Michael - Plano Prairie Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10288991916201553454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7929448677986593408.post-85342495099269544362014-11-25T21:27:01.969-06:002014-11-25T21:27:01.969-06:00Thanks Linda.

I really love your pine muhly, too. As much as I absolutely adore Lindheimer muhly, it's really too big for most of my garden, and this seems like a much better alternative. I am also running into the issue of having too much shade. Are there any showy native grasses you can recommend for part shade?Lorihttp://gardenerofgoodandevil.wordpress.com/blog/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7929448677986593408.post-38958065734481744942014-11-17T12:25:08.342-06:002014-11-17T12:25:08.342-06:00LOVE your grass pictures.

There is a mass planting along a nearby highway. My planting is getting too massed as seedlings sprout. I will be thinning mine out soon because I really like the look of this grass when it can be admired without other plants crowding in.Michael - Plano Prairie Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10288991916201553454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7929448677986593408.post-39538601345901657412014-10-26T21:36:22.033-05:002014-10-26T21:36:22.033-05:00Thanks Collagemama.Thanks Collagemama.Michael - Plano Prairie Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10288991916201553454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7929448677986593408.post-24212530282790653152014-10-26T21:34:57.166-05:002014-10-26T21:34:57.166-05:00Me too Debra.
