really started to appreaciate the beauty of grasses when came to live in UK. Before knew only Festuca and Cortaderia. Lovely contrast:)

Really like your photos of all the grasses, Blue. Nice to see the geranium peeking in there too!

I think you have just answered my question, I love those seed heads(or are they called flowers?)

Don't they look great together, contrasting and catching the light......beautiful!
The Pennisetums are stunning, fabulous for this time of year.

Anne, generally speaking then flowers or inflorescence will do fine.
