Lovely wide white centers and narrow green margins. This is a cool season, clumping grass with a compact, erect growth habit, slightly shorter than Karl Foerster. Highly prized in the north where the magnificent, wheat-like seed heads appear in late spring and last all season long.

C. 'Avalanche' provides a great backdrop for lower growing, flowering perennials throughout the year. It is also useful for screening purposes and will not reseed. A good choice for heavy clay soils.

Homeowner Growing & Maintenance Tips:
C. 'Avalanche' prefers sunny, dry conditions. It can be grown in nearly any soil, including heavy clay. Be sure to provide plenty of moisture in extremely hot weather. Cut back to 6 in. in spring before new growth begins. Propagate by division in either spring or fall.
