Calamagrostis acutiflora

Also known as Feather Reed Grass, Karl Foerster Grass

Feather reed grass forms dense, clumping tufts of deep green foliage that stay strictly upright throughout the growing season. In early summer, rigid vertical stems emerge carrying feathery bronze plumes that fade to narrow, buff-colored stalks by autumn. This naturally occurring sterile hybrid thrives in full sun and wet soils, providing winter structure and shelter for roosting songbirds.
