GRASSES & GROUNDCOVERS

Like a true Southern belle, our

Southern Living grasses offer

beauty backed by strength. These

heat and drought tolerant grasses

bring unique foliage colors and

textures to borders and containers.

Unlike many grasses that grow

huge and then die back in winter,

ours are more compact and

evergreen, lasting year-round.

A trellised vine like

‘Angyo Star’ Fatshedera

is an ideal element to

add vertical interest. Try

using unexpected items to

train the vines–like three

copper rods tied with jute.

1 . ‘Soft Caress’ Mahonia

2 . ‘Angyo Star’ Fatshedera

3 . 3 copper rods or bamboo sticks

4 . Jute and wire

“ ‘Angyo Star’ Fatshedera is a

wonderful addition to containers . The

best part is the more shade your

porch has, the more variegated the

leaves become!”
