After creating protective cages for the Variegated Japanese Forest Grass in the stroll garden, I finally got around to making some adjustments to the plants.
First, I removed any badly damaged plants that had been eaten by rabbits (bucketed for some loving care). Then I shifted the plants around that were still in good shape. With a gap in between each of these, I then installed 10 newly purchased plants to help fill in the bed
This is the second year this has happened, but I am hopeful that the new protective cages will put a stop to any early rabbit munching next spring.
Note: I am a little concerned about these plantings over time. These grasses can produce a thick and difficult-to-extract rootball which may become to large for such a narrow bed. The grass will find its way under, and out of, the 6 x 6 timbers if I am not careful - more to follow in the future..
