description The great decorative diversity (shape and size of inflorescences, colouring and texture of leaves, varied intensity of growth) as well as big tolerance to habitat conditions, relatively small susceptibility to diseases and small sensitivity to 'ornamental grasses' pests favour their popularization in different gardens and urban areas. The examined species all may be recommended to plant in cooler east regions of Poland. Species which begin the earliest vegetation and flowering were Calamagrostis x acutiflora 'Karl Foerster' and Deschampsia caespitosa 'Goldtau'. These species, best planted separately or in small groups, can be also recommended in small garden compositions. For large areas, naturalistic gardens as well as structural plants of flowerbeds the best are Calamagrostis x acutiflora 'Karl Foerster', Deschampsia caespitosa 'Goldtau' and Miscanthus sacchariflorus 'Robusta'. Phalaris arundinacea L. is a typical ground covering grass with decorative leaves.
