I received 29 ornamental grass plugs today, from the ill-fated Perennial Markets grass coop.
All but 7 of them are ratty looking foliage-wise, but so far seem to have good (if potbound) root systems, so I'm going to pot them up and see if I can nurse them back to health.
'Avalanche' and 'Malepartus' are in the worst condition, with up to 75% of the foliage completely shot. The Acorus is in the best shape.
I'm cutting off dead foliage, and teasing out the root systems well. I'll keep them in my bright, indirect sun carport for a week of so, before hardening them off and moving them outside. The pots will be buried in nursery beds for winter.
Any tips and tricks for bringing these poor critters back to life will be greatly appreciated.
