Feather Reed Grass

Winner of Perennial Plant of the Year Award

Add color and movement to the landscape with this easy-care perennial! It's now available in a gallon pot and shipping now. Feather Reed Grass produces magnificent feather plumes of wheat-colored seed heads. The plumes bloom in late spring and decorate the landscape through winter. Growing 4-5 ft. tall with a 2-3 ft. spread, Feather Reed Grass has an attractive clumping habit, making it ideal for use as a screen, accent plant or backdrop for other perennials. Grows best in full sun. Deer tend to avoid. Potted. Zones 4-7.
