When to plant feather reed grass
Feather reed grass is a clumping cool-season perennial grass established by division (a sterile hybrid that sets no viable seed in the ground). NC State directs you to cut the clumps back to the ground in late winter to ensure good spring growth, so set out new plants or divisions as that growth resumes.
Feather Reed Grass is timed by season rather than your frost dates, so the planting calendar does not generate ZIP-specific dates for it. Check the cited sources below to fine-tune for your area.
