Northwest Ornamental Grasses was founded in 2000 in order to produce ornamental grasses for the Pacific Northwest as well as to satisfy the owners' personal fascination with grasses.

NWOG is a division of the Walla Walla Nursery Company, a grower of perennials, shrubs and flowering vines established in 1992 in Walla Walla Washington. We are a 20-acre operation on the Oregon-Washington border at the foot of the Blue-Mountains.

The Walla Walla valley lies in an unusually temperate, low elevation zone known as "the banana belt" of Eastern Washington. While our cold winters limit the production of certain tender varieties, our warm summers are beneficial to many of the heat-loving grasses.
