PLEASE NOTE: Plants shipped in winter and early spring may arrive dormant. Deciduous perennials lose their leaves or foliage during winter and may appear "lifeless", but will burst out with new growth in spring!

Feather Reed Grass, Calamagrostis x acutiflora 'Karl Foerster' is one the most well know and highly praised perennials on the market. Tall, slender blades and prominent plumes create a dramatic expression

  • • One of the most popular ornamental grasses
  • • Low-maintenance, and exceptionally hardy
  • • Resistant to deer and other pests
  • • Attracts birds

Simple but elegant grass for gardens and landscaping

Feather reed grass is renowned for its tall blades of grass, highlighted by feathery blooms that gently wave in even the slightest bit of wind. They grow up to 6 feet tall, and form in clumps of up to 3 feet wide, giving them the solid expression of a shrub but with the delicate appeal of other decorative grasses. Blooms take on a pinkish hue early in the season and then fade to a golden tan.

Beautiful grasses that grow virtually anywhere
While feather reed grass is exceptionally well-suited for use within your existing landscaping, it also thrives in large containers for use on a patio or terrace. Group several plants together and use them as a living privacy barrier for both residential or commercial use. The possibilities really are endless.

The beginner gardener’s dream…
Feather reed grass is not only extremely hardy in a wide range of weather and lighting conditions, but its impervious to deer and other pests and requires very little maintenance. It is the ideal plant for those who don’t have time to tend to their landscaping but still want a “put together” look and loads of curb appeal.

Feather reed grass Karl Foerster

We got the grass about two weeks ago, we got it in the ground last weekend 6/24
it has grown about 6 inches already! I was kind of shocked they came in a box? lol but I am sure they will be beautiful! The plants are healthy as can be and green as grass should be. We are so excited and are taking pictures every day to watch them grow! We will be ordering again soon. We need little bushes to go in front of the grass now!
