Is it possible to purchase seeds for starting a "tall" ornamental grass. I haven't seen these in your catalog.

Although it is theoretically possible to start the larger ornamental grasses from seed, they are generally nursery propagated by division. This method enables growers to offer larger plants more quickly and it also ensures that the plants are "true to type"; the latter would be impossible if they were seed-grown.
