| The reed grass which grows abundantly beside the roads in Ontario are VERY AGRESSIVE plants. They are NOT pampas grass at all. The leaves differ; the flowers differ; it is not something you want to have. I know that I was tempted at first, but very glad I resisted the temptation. A friend of mine did not resist a similar temptation, and he ended up selling his house just to get away from it. I encourage you to think twice. However, on another note, there are occasionally some less agressive grasses out there. One is the malepartus variety in the miscanthus sinensis family. I did find it along a road side and it has been good.....smaller but fairly well behaved. |
