    Seasonal Progression

    Use this simple sun loving combo of plants to get season long interest with minimal deer disturbance. This recipe matches fine foliage textures of varying colors and successive bloom times.

Steady through the season, the decorative seedheads of the PRAIRIE WINDS® Ornamental Grass will provide fall and winter interest if not cut back.
