Hello Albert,

I'm from Las Vegas so the grasses I grow wouldn't be hardy where you are but there are some that would be nice. Hardy to Zone 4 at least are Helictotrichon sempervirens, Schizachyrium scoparium, Festuca glauca, Elytrigia elongata, Blepharoneuron tricholepis, Andropogon gerardi, Panicum virgatum, and Sorgastrum nutans.

I love grasses,

Maria
