Thanks, I've had good and bad luck ordering semps so far, but was happy overall with those (they came from Michigan Bulb.)
I know MB have probably as many negative reviews as positive, but I've had good luck with them. Their plants are pretty small, but they have good prices, and I've also been impressed by their customer service.

I received a shipment that was damaged in transit. (Literally it looked like someone somewhere at UPS or USPS was having a really bad day, and took it out on my package. The box was damaged, then they cut it open, and apparently punched or stomped all the plants in the middle of the box. They then taped it back closed all the way around the whole box, purposely covering up every vent hole.) In fact, the Sanford's Hybrid was one of the damaged plants. You can't really tell from the picture but the crown is almost completely severed from the root ball.
MB reshipped the damaged plants pretty quickly and they should arrive between Thursday and Saturday.

As for the Zebra Grass, they will be used in the back yard in the left and right beds to basically bookend the yard/plantings.
