 In the following
sections we have tried to offer some suggestions and ideas for various themes
for using bamboo and miscanthus in gardens from the Oriental Feng Shui or Zen and Prairie to the Contemporary 'minimalist'
styles that have become so popular in the last few years. Today particularly in
the small modern garden low maintenance, architectural planting, have become
the key words in garden planning considerations.

Many of the miscanthus and bamboo plants offered from this site make excellent pot
plants and ideally suited to patio and courtyard gardens. Many of the miscanthus and bamboos
on offer look stunning when planted in oriental style glazed pots and planters
of strong colours adding a different form and dimension to the garden along
with the added grace of both sound and movement.
Most of the bamboo, miscanthus ornamental grasses at the Pot
and Grass Company, unless stated otherwise, are hardy, easy to grow, low
maintenance and versatile. There is a multitude of sizes, colours, leaf forms and
textures to choose from. There is enough variety in the cultivars and species
to suite virtually any garden plan or scheme; no matter whether you are planning a
new garden from scratch or you just need a selection to that will fit
comfortably within your existing garden layout.
Although all our bamboo and miscanthus will look very good in any garden
design there are specific cultivars and species that are better suited to
individual styles of garden. The choice is so wide it is sometime difficult to
make an informed choice.
Oriental gardens for instance have become very fashionable
offering an exotic and sometimes romantic alternative with simple clean
architectural lines, strong colours and contrasting texture. Yet an Oriental
garden can be difficult to coordinate, many gardeners are unaware of the very
distinct differences in both style and philosophy of Chinese and Japanese
gardens. Trying to combine the two styles rarely works.
