Features

notes
An upright architectural grass, Calamagrotis Waldenbuch is very effective in the garden year round. Clump forming, the loosely arching stems produce feathery, purple brown sprays of flowers in summer, which turn golden and last into winter. The effect of  illumination in the soft evening light is really magical.
Insights

Slow spreading, Calamagrotis looks wonderful when planted en masse in a border or teamed with other grasses. For a prairie style planting, mix with echinacea or achillea.
