The limiting factor is going to be wet clay in winter.

Good idea to wait until trees and shrubs are truly dormant.

Flame Grass

We see quite a bit of this in the Milwaukee area.

Stunning ornamental grass.

Graziella Maiden Grass

Miscanthus sinensis 'Graziella'

Sounds a little iffy for our garden, but it might still be worth a try.

Frost Grass

There is a nice clump at Gus' Green Thumb Garden.

It will be interesting to see if it develops the good fall color.
