Commonly known as both Bunny Tails and Hare's Tail, this ornamental grass is neat and compact, topped by chartreuse puffballs that really do resemble little rabbit tails. As summer turns to autumn, the Bunny Tails turn to rich tan and dry out beautifully on the plant. You can leave them there - they make spectacular winter accents, lasting until they catch the first heavy snowfall. Or you can cut them and use them in dried arrangements, where they will last for months, refusing to shatter the way some textured grasses do after drying.
