Thank you, Patrick! I appreciate your comments. I called this Kaiser grass because I didn't know what type of ornamental grass this is. This variety grows about 6 ft tall and looks very cool after it goes to seed. Many home owners and commercial properties use ornamental grasses like this in their landscaping design. Thanks again for your comments! #8030760

I would have believed me, if you told me this was called Kaiser grass. I can't tell grasses apart, and don't know the names. Well seen and a wonderful capture. You managed the breeze well here. #8036941

Beautiful tones and detail Cary ~ I thought you'd given me the name of these lovely grasses as we have them here too ~ great light and capture! #8037351

Thank you for dropping by and leaving me your nice comments, Eivor, and Susie! I know a lot of landscapers around here use yampa grass, but I don't know if this is yampa. I'd like to tramp around in some 6 ft tall grass like this some time. ;-) thanks again! #8040954
