Can anyone offer any tips/tricks for stopping long grass from growing up through shrubs in a border? I've got rock roses and low, spreading dwarf conifers that are affected. Is there a grass-specific herbicide?

Thank you.

Not in the UK or EU for the amateur. For example, see sethoxydim he
https://sitem.herts.ac.uk/aeru/ppdb/en/Reports/589.htm

But there are approved chemicals related to the above. Search on
"clethrodim" and "cycloxydim" for more info.
