Quick Overview
The Ornamental Grass 'Korean Feather Reed', Calamagrostis brachytricha, is a stately ornamental that blooms well in light shade. It is a warm season ornamental grass which features a mound of narrow, stiff, green leaves. This grass is one of the few flowering grasses that is happy in the shade. The 'Korean Feather Reed' grass is more upright in full sun, but creates a more relaxed form when grown in partial shade. Somewhat relaxed in habit, it can serve as the main feature in a fall garden long after most other plants have given up! When relaxed, the blossoms can spill over in a graceful manner. It is best to plant and divide 'Korean Feather Reed' in early spring or early fall. Use in mass plantings, borders, containers, or as a specimen plant.
