To help Chasmanthium settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in partial to full shade in rich, moist soil. Chasmanthium latifolium (Northern Sea Oats) is one of the few ornamental grasses that thrives in shade, prized for its distinctive, pendulous, oat-like seed heads that provide excellent architectural interest from late summer into winter. While it is a clump-forming perennial, it can be a prolific self-seeder; consider deadheading the plumes before seeds mature if you want to limit its spread in the garden. Cut the foliage back to the ground in late winter or early spring to refresh the plant for the upcoming season.
