UNDAUNTED® Alpine Plume Grass
Achnatherum calamagrostis ‘PUND02S'
UNDAUNTED® alpine plume grass is a spectacular, long-lived grass from high mountain meadows in central and southern Europe. A mature plant makes a dramatic specimen, with several dozen flower heads waving above a graceful fountain of fresh green foliage. The flowers persist from summer until the following spring. Unlike many other ornamental grasses, the foliage doesn't die out in the clump's center over time.
Tips from the pros: In the early spring, cut the entire plant back to make room for the new season's growth.
