Ornamental grasses seem to be usually lumped together as needing
warmth to germinate and best sown in spring. Are there any
exceptions? I have seed of various grasses - Deschampia, Miscanthus,
Carex, Stipa. Do any of these need exposure to cold or would I be
best to leave sowing them until about March?
Thanks for any information and sorry if I've missed any already given

Reply: In review of several books, stratification in not required. Sow in spring in fertile soil.
