What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Annie Thornton to Great Design Plant: Feather Reed Grass
How to use it. With great vertical height, permeable foliage and medium growth rate, the design possibilities for feather reed grass are endless. In a landscape lacking linear or vertical accents, a row planting of these grasses is a great way to add order without creating too harsh or minimalistic landscape. Simultaneously this plant can serve as an effective screen solution if you are looking to block out a neighboring property or unsightly view — all around the perfect backdrop.Alternatively, a mass planting of these grasses is an obvious design solution for filling open space and creating a naturalistic field of golden ornamental grasses. The narrower habbit of feather reed grass also makes it a perfect space-saving solution in smaller spaces as an accent piece — growing up rather than out. For those of you looking for the ultimate in space-saving design, feather reed grass is also a perfect container plant as well as a key floral arrangement ingredient.

Before you plant. As with most perennial grasses, feather reed grass is long-lived, tough and pretty maintenance free once in the ground. In order to avoid rust disease, maintain soil drainage and good air circulation around the plant. After flowering, cut the grass back to around 12” in late winter or early spring to clear out old growth. Being a cool-season grass, plant feather reed grass in spring or fall and enjoy its texture, color, and movement for seasons to come.
