My winter cone basket from last year that had a mixture of evergreen grasses underplanted with muscari (grape hyacinth) has grown well during the summer. With regular watering and feeding the grasses have filled out well and have flowered over the last month or so. I've now returned it to by the front door as an infil until I plant this years winter hanging offering.
Grass hanging baskets are great if you don't have a lot of time for care and watering and seem to put up with the worst the weather can throw at them. When the grasses get too big just plant them in containers or in beds.
