Grass, Calamagrostis a. 'Overdam'

This ornamental grass showcases a compact, clump-forming habit with creamy white and green variegated foliage, adding vibrant texture to any landscape. Hardy in Zones 4-9, it thrives in temperatures ranging from moderately cool to warm climates. Blossoming in midsummer, it features airy, wheat-like flower plumes in soft tan that gracefully arch above the foliage. In fall, the foliage turns to golden hues, adding seasonal interest. Preferring full sun to light shade, it grows well in fertile, well-drained soils but tolerates a range of conditions, including poor or dry soils. With a mature height of 3-4 feet, it remains relatively narrow, making it ideal for borders or as an accent plant. This grass shows good resistance to deer and requires minimal maintenance once established. It does not produce fruit. Perfect for adding understated elegance to naturalistic gardens or modern landscape designs.
