T...Yes to finding a hardy alternative to Cousin It. To me, Hakonechloa gives a similar sense of flowing, arching foliage, but of course it's deciduous. Some of the hardy asparagus might be somewhat similar, but with much finer foliage. That's all I can think of off the top of my head. I bet there are more and better approximations. I'm intrigued by the bamboo kokedama, but I woudn't want to keep up with the watering it would need.Evan Beanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06732413653862912387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-84407720868594781682018-02-18T19:17:31.378-08:002018-02-18T19:17:31.378-08:00Your heart hands photo is amazing!
