Question of the Week:
I checked the “A to Z Garden Answer” section of your website under “grass,” “ornamental grass” and “tall grass” and couldn’t find an answer to my question: Is it “okay,” “recommended,” or “forbidden” to cut off the dead stems of ornamental grasses? If it is okay, when is the best time?
