Pruning ornamental grasses

The grasses Carex buchananii, Carex Solandri and Festuca banks peninsula blue along the drive are looking straggly and have lost their symmetry. There are a lot of dead stalks. There are weeds growing among the clumps and now its winter, its time to do some tidying up.

The clumps of Carex buchananii are given a rough cut with shears first, then tidied using secateurs.
