    I am interested in having a low “red” border of upright grasses in one of my garden beds. I am thinking the habit of the Japanese Blood Grass, Imperata cylindrica rubra would be perfect. I realize it may not survive the winter (zone 6) and am wondering if I could over-winter it?
    Do you have this ornamental grass available at your nursery? Can I only visit Brougham on Saturdays or are you open to the public during the week as well?

    Hope to hear from you,
