NOW is the time to cut ornamental grasses. This chore can be tricky and tough on the hands. You should wear protective clothing, as many of the grass blades may be sharp and cause painful cuts. Try using a belt or bungee cord to make this task easier. Place the belt or bungee cord around the entire plant, apply constant tension as you cut and cut just below the strap. This will make cleanup and disposal much easier. Plants may be cut back to about ½ of the original size. Do not cut the center of the plant shorter than the outside edges.
