Calamagrostis acutiflora 'Karl Foerster' is one of the most versatile, attractive, and low maintenance ornamental grasses. The foliage appears in early spring and lasts until early winter. Feathery flower inflorescences appear in June and are initially light pink in color. As the flowers age they become a golden tan color that lasts through the fall season. The growth habit is vertical with foliage 2-3 feet tall and flower stems up to 5 feet in height.
This plant became the first ornamental grass to be named "Perennial Plant of the Year" in 2001.
