I have never planted grasses of any kind - no clue. I just got a Miscanthus sinensis 'gracillimus' in a 3 gal pot. How should I plant it, how deep/wide, etc. what amendments? I may be back with other grass questions, since DH insists on having several types of grasses.
Should I plant small grasses, like festuca, in one of the non-traditional beds made with card board, hay, coffee grounds and mulch, by digging through this material into the soil underneath? Again - how deep/wide, etc.
From a landscaping point of view, is it desirable to have big clumps of such grasses, say three in a group, or is one sufficient (since they do get quite big)? DH's grasses will be planted along a driveway with lawn behind it. I think I would have some GROUPS of shorter grasses, but the big ones ...?
Thanks, C.
