Calamagrostis brachytricha is a beautiful specimen plant and looks stunning in masses where its foliage and plumes are always ready to catch the slightest breeze. It grows well in shade, tolerates hot summers, and produces pink, feathery blooms on tall stalks. Foliage grows in a three-foot, fountain-like mound. Grouped in masses, Korean Feather Reed Grass creates a relaxing, picturesque look in the landscape. It is important to give Calamagrostis brachytricha a good start by watering well at initial planting. Supply additional irrigation the first season, and thereafter it should do well on its own.
