    Thanks for the information about suitable grasses, Rachel. I have some grasses in my basket on the Knoll website and will go back at look at the features you mentioned.

    I am hoping to visit Hauser Wirth at Taunton once it is allowed/open.  Thanks for the other mentions - they look interesting. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge.
    Thanks

    Neil Lucas's book on grasses is very good for practical advice. 

    This blog is quite a good read - https://thegardenbarnhouse.com

    I would give Sesleria autumnalis a shout out, very useful grass for knitting everything together and quick to clump up. Also it's semi evergreen.

  • Don't know why I didn't mention it before...check out Sussex Prairies. Paul and Pauline McBride, the owners, trained with Piet and have done their own thing on a 6 acre site. There are some fabulous pictures online and it's open to visitors (Covid-19 permitting). Their plant fair is also well worth attending.
