Chasmanthium latifolium
(Northern sea oats, Spangle grass, Wild oats)

(2 user reviews)

Hardiness Zones:

Northern sea oats is a loosely tufted, clump-forming grass with lance-shaped, arching mid-green foliage that turns yellow in winter. Summer brings highly decorative oat-like panicles of flat, green flowerheads that shimmer and rustle in the wind, aging to bronze by late summer.
