Introducing Calamagrostis Arundinacea – Karl Foerster, a stunning ornamental grass prized for its dramatic red-copper plumes that steal the spotlight in early to mid-summer. Ideal for both fresh and dried flower arrangements, borders, or garden landscapes, this cool-weather performer adds a touch of elegance to any setting.

Not only is Karl Foerster Reed Grass heat-tolerant and low-maintenance, but it also boasts highly ornamental fruit in the form of tan seed heads carried on showy plumes from late summer to late winter.
