Compuesta principalmente por especies de los generos: Stipa, Festuca,
Calamagrostis, Poa, Baccharis, Gentiana, Lupinus, Culcitium, Chuquiraga, Senecio, Tafalla, Perezia, Werneria, Opuntia y Puya (Villiger 1981, Rivera 1985).
Miscanthus,
calamagrostis and pennisetum are all good examples, while Stipa lessigiana, a shorter grass, will add a soft, airy quality to a border and act as a good foil for autumn plants.

Calamagrostis 'Karl Foerster' and 'Overdam' are two very useful grasses - at 1.5 metres they have an excellent upright form and delightful blooms of soft seed hameln' heads that condense to a neater, narrower form over the season.

Calamagrostis 'Karl Foerster' 'Zebrinus' Stipa gigantea Hakonechloa macra Cortaderia richardii Miscanthus sinensis (Japanese silvergrass)
| Cortaderia richardii is a relative of the pampas grass and, like its
Calamagrostis 'Karl Foerster' cousin, needs a good bit of space.
Alternatively, it was hypothesized that present-day
Calamagrostis purpurascens communities developed during the Holocene Thermal Maximum (11 000-9000 cal yr BP), whereas Hesperostipa comata communities formed less than 3000 years ago after postglacial migration of the species from central North America.
Calamagrostis Karl Foerster is a cool-season grass and sends up tall flowering stems early in summer.
Consequently,
Calamagrostis epigejos, Sedum species, Brassica species, and Solanum nigrum proposed as an alternative to T.
In the front yard, she achieved that by loosely layering unfussy perennials--including tufts of grassy-looking orange-streaked Anemanthele lessoniana-, 'Walker's Low' nepeta for purple contrast; clumps of Santa Barbara daisies, which die down in winter and reseed themselves; and feather reed grass (
Calamagrostis x acutiflora 'Karl Foerster').
