Inland Seaoats
Chasmanthium latifolium (Inland Sea Oats) is a clump-forming perennial grass that thrives in moist, shaded environments. Reaching heights of 2-4 feet, it is characterized by its graceful, drooping, oat-like seedheads and blue-green, bamboo-like leaves. In fall, the foliage turns a bright yellow-gold, adding seasonal interest.
