Calamagrostis 'Avalanche'
Avalanche feather reed grass
A bright form of C. 'Karl Forester' selected by Steve Schmidt for its wide, white stripe in the center and for the creamy flowers that appear in mid summer and turn to golden straw in fall. An excellent cool season grass that is especially striking when mass planted. A brighter and more vigorous selection than C. 'Overdam'.
