DEER-RESISTANT GRASSES
More than just ornamental grasses, grassy plants also include sedges, rushes, and sweet flag. These long-lived foliage plants offer a contrast to flowers and large-leaved plants, and also often create movement as they sway in the breeze. Some also flower or change color with the seasons.
River Oats
An ornamental grass with distinctive flat seedheads on graceful, arching stems that likes to grow where many grasses don't - in shady, moist sites.
Little Bluestem
Plant a mini-meadow to host the larvae of prairie butterflies like skippers. This vertical, drought-tolerant accent will rustle and sway in the breeze.
Blue Fescue Grass
Clumps of spiky steely blue grass.
