This cool season grass is commonly found along shores of rivers, lakes and woodlands. Summer and fall are when it provides seasonal interest. It thrives best in full sun and a wet soil.
Native to Ontario and most of North America
Cool Season Grasses: These grasses do the majority of their growing in early spring and start again when temperatures start to cool in the fall. During the warmer summer months, they stop growing and some will even go dormant. Cool season grasses flower in the spring or early summer. Most cool season grasses grow best in a consistently moist soil.
The foliage of Small Reedgrass provides cover and nesting for birds and small mammals while the foliage feeds large mammals and the seeds feed waterfowl, ground-nesting birds, and small mammals.
