| Description | Karl Foerster Feather Reed Grass is a clump-forming ornamental grass prized for its upright growth habit and attractive feathery plumes. It features narrow, green foliage that grows in dense, vertical tufts, reaching a height of about 4 to 5 feet (120 to 150 cm). The real showstopper is its plumes, which emerge in early summer and transform from purplish-bronze to golden tan, creating a striking display that persists into winter. This grass provides an architectural element to garden borders and works well as a specimen plant or in mass plantings. Its sturdy, non-invasive nature and tolerance of various growing conditions make it a popular choice for landscaping projects. |
