Feather Reed Grass
'Hello Spring!™'
Calamagrostis acutiflora
Variegated Feather Reed Grass is a unique cultivar that stands out from the typical upright habits of market cultivars, featuring leaves with wide creamy white margins edging green centers. The foliage cascades to the ground to form an arching habit, providing a stunning backdrop to your other plants. In addition to its aesthetic appeal, the Variegated Feather Reed Grass is also easy to grow in nearly any soil, including heavy clay. However, it's important to note that it does require plenty of moisture in extremely hot weather. In the summer, cream flower spikes rise above the foliage, further adding to the beauty of this grass. To ensure healthy growth, it's recommended to cut back the grass to 6 in spring before new growth begins.
