Karl Foerster Grass is a stunning ornamental grass with feathery plumes that sway gracefully in the wind. It starts green, turns golden wheat by summer, and stays beautiful through winter. A fast-growing, low-maintenance plant, it thrives in zones 5-11, tolerates various soils (including clay and wet areas), and handles drought when needed. Growing 4-6 feet tall, it adds vertical texture to borders and pathways. Prune in late winter or early spring to keep it tidy. With its year-round appeal and resilience, it’s a fantastic choice for any garden!


Unique Plant Features:

  • Karl Foerster grass is a fast-growing, low-maintenance ornamental grass that reaches 4-6 feet in height and 2-3 feet in width.
  • Its feathery plumes emerge pinkish-purple in early summer, mature to a golden wheat color, and remain attractive through winter.
