Ornamental grass refers to a variety of grass species cultivated for their aesthetic appeal in gardens and landscapes. These grasses come in various heights, colors, and textures, making them versatile for different design styles. They can be used as borders, ground covers, or focal points, adding movement and softness to outdoor spaces.
