Blowing in the wind

in #esteem6 years ago (edited)

The last time I visited the gardens these grasses captured my attention as they were dancing about in the breeze.

I'm not certain which variety this is, but it puts on quite a show in the autumn and adds so much movement to a quiet garden corner.

I have missed seeing you, too! Is everything good for you?

I love plumed foliage and the beautiful way their plumes react to a gentle breeze. I can understand why you were attracted to them.

They do add so much life and movement to a garden!

Thanks for using eSteem!

That's beautiful! I hope you make a post about it and show it in all the stages!

These simple grasses look nimble like ballet dancers! We also have very similar grasses like these but their flowers were much smaller and more like cotton wool.

I think I know the type that you mean, they are beautiful too. There are so many different varieties.

I can see how these add to the quiet corner in the garden. I like the back drop of autumn colored leaves in the trees.

Thanks! I love the movement they create. I've tried to get some started back where my septic tank is and I cannot get them started there. I see other areas where people have them well-established and they try to take over the world. I think maybe my yard is just too shady to get them growing well

Where is this? Edit your post and we'll resteem it.😉

wow I've never seen grasses quite like that Melinda, very cool!

They are pretty, aren't they? They really do take over once they have become established! I have a neighbor who had some planted on each side of the driveway entrance and they've taken over a big part of her front lawn. She has a hard time backing out of her driveway onto the road because they're so tall and she can't see.

ha! howdy Melinda..oh so those things grow super well up there and take over yards! lol. gotta be careful what you plant!

Only some yards! I've tried to get some to grow back by the septic tank and cannot get them started there to save my soul!

oh wow, ok so they're picky I guess, weird! Hey what about the Packers? did they win?

Let's not talk about football.

oh no, I'm sorry. ok. well what about the weather, like tomorrow here it's supposed to be up to 80 degrees and then the rest of the week the highs will be in the 50s and 60s but the normal averages are in the 70s.

They look like some sort of prairie grass. Nice photos of them, especially the first one. Great contrast and light.

Thanks! I think it is some kind of Miscanthus, which I believe is native to Asia.

Lovely photos, Melinda. And such a nice find. This grass looks like ponytails. Could it be one of those?

Thanks! Is that a thing? Ponytail grass?

Yes. This is a grass species. It might be this one

Beautiful images @melinda010100 The lighting in the first shot emphasizes the delicate fronds blowing in the breeze. We have those grasses here too but i do not know what they are called.

Looking at this photo, I want to be there between the grass which is blowing in the wind. It's fun, of course. I can't dream it

Thanks! It would be great to sit there and listen to the sound of the wind.

That must be an extraordinary moment, especially I can enjoy with the people I love

It is a beautiful garden.

I agree wiht you.
Beautiful garden

So beautiful! 😍😍😍
