Growing up to 1.5 meters high, it has bright green leaves and dense, erect clumps. It is well adapted to cold climates, and can withstand temperatures as low as -40°C. Lapland Reedgrass makes a great ornamental grass in gardens and is also a popular source of forage for grazing animals. It prefers moist, acidic soils and full sun, though it can tolerate some shade. Lapland Reedgrass is a hardy, low-maintenance grass that adds texture to landscapes and is also a fast and valuable soil erosion control plant.
