Calamagrostis brachytricha

• Rate of growth: slow-growing

• Hardiness: fully hardy
  
  A useful, clump-forming, upright grass that will thrive in sun and partial shade, this is grown for its tall, fluffy flower heads that emerge pink and fade to a delicate bronze. The emerging growth can be a bit tatty, so place it in the middle of the border. Its best planted in full sun as it tends to flop over more in shade.
  
  
• Garden care: Cut back to ground level in late winter before the new growth appears.
