Ornamental Grasses
In other parts of the country, you know it’s fall when the leaves start to change colors. Shades of red, yellow & orange – I’m transported back to the Midwest, where I grew up. While there are some trees in Southeast Louisiana that will give us some fall color, there’s something else that I always think about when I think of true fall weather. That is ornamental grasses. When nighttime temperatures begin to drop low enough, your ornamental grasses will start to turn BROWN. Regarding ornamental grasses turning brown, a professor once told me, “Don’t forget, brown is a color.”
