Korean Feather Reed Grass
The glossy green leaves of Korean feather reed grass form a graceful vase-like clump.
In late summer, large silvery-pink plumes appear, fading to tan seedheads in the winter. The feathery plumes are quite beautiful.
Unlike many of the ornamental grasses, Korean feather reed grass will bloom when grown in shade. Needs regular moisture and protection from the wind to grow well.
