I used to spend a lot of time and energy cutting back all my dormant grasses in late winter, but now I just burn them back with one match strike. Be careful, though, it puts off a lot of heat and can damage nearby plants. Soak surrounding plants and mulch or pine straw with the hose before-hand.

I tie them up and use my gas powered pruners. My luck I would burn down someones house down.

A weedeater with a blade is probably the perfect tool for cutting back dead foliage on large ornamental grasses. But burning sounds a lot cheaper...if you don't burn your house down that is:-)

Ha ha. I just got a nice visual on that. Burning permit? Who needs a burning permit? The HCFD is very understanding, and always looking for something to do.
