Here are the three, 2-gallon Karl Foerster Reed grasses I bought.

Here is one of the grasses after the root ball was cut in half.

And, finally, the six new grasses after they've been re-potted. This was taken just after they were divided, but it's a week later and they're still doing fine.

I planted 28 Black Mondo Grass seeds and ended up with...28 seedlings! When I potted them up I decided to double up most of them, since I'm not even sure what I'll do with 14+ pots, let alone 28. Anyway, it's fun to have something germinate so well--a lot of my experiments don't work out. I don't know if it matters, but the seeds weren't collected until some time in December, so they had a month or more of freezing nights, though the weather this year has been particularly mild.

A few of the black mondo grass seedlings coming up in the shallow dirt with shredded paper mulch tray. I'll have to put them in individual pots shortly.

Little black mondo grass shoots coming up through the shredded paper mulch in a seedling tray. First signs of spring gardening at this house.
