Location: Lincolnshire Wolds, UK Richard: I have been keeping ornamental grasses for as long as I care to remember! The first border I’ve cut into the lawn at my artdeco bungalow (Grassy Bottom) is primarily filled with ‘Karl Foerster’ and it’s newly planted so it will take a couple seasons to mature. Propagating is easy as I simply divide mature clumps. I plant en-masse as it looks stunning when it billows in a breeze. It has almost year-round interest and sits well in any perennial border where it offers the eye a place to rest and acts as a focal point. I cut all my plants back to the ground in late February which is when they begin the fresh new growth. This grass really should be on everyone's list and certainly sits on my list in the top 5. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1595106885623-6G5K78WHIBCCKT98JGXZ/20200711_185403.jpg Blog - ‘Karl Foerster’ Feather Reed Grass - Perfect for Every Garden Due West Environment https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1595107029362-CIRM87MFROAZ6OBGC1N6/20200711_185232.jpg Blog - ‘Karl Foerster’ Feather Reed Grass - Perfect for Every Garden ‘Karl Foerster’ and Miniature Russian Sage https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1595106711315-MGIZQKS6FNFY0D748I8J/20200711_185343.jpg Blog - ‘Karl Foerster’ Feather Reed Grass - Perfect for Every Garden Water Regularly for Maximum Potential https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1595102360358-HPJD12G8OUJ5WKS8H2VV/20200718_145520.jpg Blog - ‘Karl Foerster’ Feather Reed Grass - Perfect for Every Garden - Instagram: Gardendesigndiary <—Click to follow! Location: Sheffield, England Lee: I’ve had ‘Karl Foerster’ grasses in my garden for four years and they have grown tall and bloomed reliably each year. I keep them mulched with bark mulch and leaf mould. The grasses are by far the first to produce fresh green growth in spring, with the panicles changing color from green to russet to pale straw. The one downside to this particular grass for me is the panicles will flop right over in rain until the wind dries them off them, which frankly makes them look a mess. Yet to my amazement each time this happens, they have this ability to slowly spring back perfectly upright, right when I think they’ve had it. I do keep them well watered after division until they put their roots down but after that, they look after themselves. I admire the structural qualities of this grass too as it has real presence when planted in groups. It was the first grass I ever bought and remains a key plant in my garden. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1594775646549-A4NOOHYNOWNEDPNIE1D0/20200714_200444+%282020-07-14T20_04_44.000%29.jpg Blog - ‘Karl Foerster’ Feather Reed Grass - Perfect for Every Garden - Instagram: Nickhoodgardens <—Click to follow! Location: Wiltshire, England Nick: I have found it is one of the best grasses around and not invasive. It always flowers and is such a good foil for other plants and compliments itself with so many perennials. I have not had any issues with disease. The grasses start off with black vertical flowers which move beautifully in the breeze then turn to a beautiful brown and open flower head. Mine have never blown over and have the most wonderful winter silhouette! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1594754008593-AUMNKTFKGKNAPOJCQN14/20190706_173106.jpg Blog - ‘Karl Foerster’ Feather Reed Grass - Perfect for Every Garden A Popular Seat https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1594753212642-74A9HSF351EN6WN9226U/20190502_111927.jpg Blog - ‘Karl Foerster’ Feather Reed Grass - Perfect for Every Garden Clump-Forming Spring Growth https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1594758386675-704BBQKX710FBUIE6JGT/20180527_173104.jpg Blog - ‘Karl Foerster’ Feather Reed Grass - Perfect for Every Garden Pinkish/Purple Colored Blooms https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1594774416122-7UCJKKS3HCXWLJSMWFXN/20200714_195130.jpg Blog - ‘Karl Foerster’ Feather Reed Grass - Perfect for Every Garden - Instagram: Astayathomegardner <—Click to follow! Location: Detroit, Michigan USA Kate: We have had some of our ‘Karl Foerster’ grasses for up to 4 years. I love these grasses because they’re early bloomers. We are using them as a privacy hedge in our backyard and they’re full-sized by June, which is important to us. In one spot we have them planted as a privacy hedge next to an evergreen. I actually most prefer their pink blooming stage, which for us is mid-June. They’re magical when they float in the wind and especially when backlit by sun. I also appreciate their tan, mid-summer into fall, coloring. Looks good with just about everything! We have a lot of silver and purple and I think the tan really blends well with that. This grass is an all around winner for us! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1594849606648-XDN9GFHN2N0P1OUDTHT3/20200715_164504.jpg Blog - ‘Karl Foerster’ Feather Reed Grass - Perfect for Every Garden - Instagram: Knutolavmoell <—Click to follow! Location: near Mandal, Norway Knut Olav: 'Karl Foerster' is beautiful in the spring when it is just a clump of green grass, then when it gains height, it gives those beautiful vertical lines! When the reeds start "flowering", it's like a small cloud in the garden and I love the way the reeds dance in the wind! In my gardens, rain and wind break a few reeds quite early and I have a few Miscanthus grasses as well but this never happens to them. I wouldn't give up 'Karl Foerster' though and it's easy to propagate by splitting the clumps. My experience is that it HAS to be split every few years, as it looses vigor and the clumps almost become "empty" in the center. It's a beautiful plant in the garden! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1594666637350-9RMY5OKFBHVT72MGQS9T/20200711_121104.jpg Blog - ‘Karl Foerster’ Feather Reed Grass - Perfect for Every Garden Calamagrostis x acutiflora ‘Karl Foerster’ https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1594759425169-2OIG4ZL7B44SW9TLXG5Q/20160621_164115.jpg Blog - ‘Karl Foerster’ Feather Reed Grass - Perfect for Every Garden My Initial Discovery https://www.thebackyardbarnabee.com/blog-1/lonicera monthly 0.5 2023-09-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1594152895098-D8R9WQJPDJLHKM4DGP3T/20200705_085612.jpg Blog - ‘Graham Thomas’ and ‘Gold Flame’ Honeysuckle - Amazingly Fragrant ‘Graham Thomas’ Honeysuckle in Bloom https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1594238729199-MDSFFPQQEEMC4I054EVI/20200402_103429.jpg Blog - ‘Graham Thomas’ and ‘Gold Flame’ Honeysuckle - Amazingly Fragrant ‘Gold Flame’ Honeysuckle https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1594242234530-HDK6IKOENJ29Z74TTE0D/20200708_153902.jpg Blog - ‘Graham Thomas’ and ‘Gold Flame’ Honeysuckle - Amazingly Fragrant - Instagram: Littlegreenguru Location: Southern Coast of the UK Cat: I planted it in an obelisk to support it - to be honest I planted it in a very awkward place, as it does not really have anywhere to go but with such a small garden I was limited. But to my surprise, this year it has really picked up - happy, healthy growth with an increase in stems and now some wonderful flowers about to bloom. It likes the southern facing warm aspect and I have hopes it will continue its growth throughout the year and I can start to trail it back over the trellis for a bit of coverage (and privacy). I have not seen any significant pests or pest damage and I do not use any pesticide or artificial fertilizer. It is a perfect plant for insects - mainly bumblebees, butterflies and moths. Maybe it will produce berries this year which I am sure will be eaten by mice etc. It is only a small plant but its a survivor and I cannot wait for it to bloom! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1594240882597-U6PLA2AN0DUZYCNMS98X/20200705_191329.jpg Blog - ‘Graham Thomas’ and ‘Gold Flame’ Honeysuckle - Amazingly Fragrant Powdery Mildew https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1594257247046-G0K5HO27F4Z6VI675RJW/20200708_201259.jpg Blog - ‘Graham Thomas’ and ‘Gold Flame’ Honeysuckle - Amazingly Fragrant ‘Gold Flame’ - Blooming In the Midst of the Mildew Battle https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1594232552837-FNZ0C9GSF0GOBUQIFK6M/20200707_195629.jpg Blog - ‘Graham Thomas’ and ‘Gold Flame’ Honeysuckle - Amazingly Fragrant First Year ‘Graham Thomas’ Planting https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1594233711008-NEJPN08LLFTBULQBRXVO/20200705_085715%281%29.jpg Blog - ‘Graham Thomas’ and ‘Gold Flame’ Honeysuckle - Amazingly Fragrant - Instagram: The_Wildlings_Garden Location: UK Debbie: It is truly an amazing honeysuckle!

Pictured is 12 months of growth and it has just started flowering which smells amazing! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1594241473698-ANH0L7LGLERW0RQV599S/20200708_153949.jpg Blog - ‘Graham Thomas’ and ‘Gold Flame’ Honeysuckle - Amazingly Fragrant - Instagram: Littlegreenguru Location: Southern Coast of the UK Cat: Living in the southern coast, about a mile from the ocean, my climate is a bit of a microclimate similar to Zones 9b or 10a where our temperatures never really get above 82F in the summer and lower than 28F in the winter. My yard is a typical UK garden, approximately 42ft x 22ft, and is south-facing. With houses on both sides, privacy is important hence where the honeysuckle has come in! Looking for a climber that was easy to maintain, relatively quick growing with the bonus of flower and scent, I decided on the semi-evergreen variety of Gold Flame that has a wonderful hot pink/yellowish coloring that would go well with the rest of my plants on and near my trellis. I bought my Gold Flame as a small potted plant in 2018 and unfortunately it was the worst timing ever - we were having a heatwave and the poor honeysuckle sat hot and stressed in a pot, finally becoming inundated with powdery mildew. It was a sad case indeed. When I finally planted it, I was not sure if it would survive, but I crossed my fingers and gave it as much TLC as possible (aka a little manure and a feed plus good watering in the hot, fall season). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1594232807987-1RSAT02C2IX311G498KB/20200705_085829.jpg Blog - ‘Graham Thomas’ and ‘Gold Flame’ Honeysuckle - Amazingly Fragrant - Instagram: The_Wildlings_Garden Location: UK Debbie: We received our Graham Thomas from a local nursery and it has been growing for 23 years! It started off as a normal-size climber and has gotten exponentially bigger. It receives semi-shade and originally was growing up a pergola but we then moved an old shed and pulled it over the roof. I do not prune it but the bees and birds love it! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee4ccc4884b542830f781be/1594420117808-XP1D60EV4GW8VB0E85LQ/20200710_172539.jpg Blog - ‘Graham Thomas’ and ‘Gold Flame’ Honeysuckle -

This picture is of the fledglings from the first nest they ever built on top of our security camera. When the adult Swallows were first checking out the nest site, they would make so much noise at night trying to get situated to sleep! To make them more comfortable, I put up a little chain which they immediately used and then we barely heard them. Once their babies hatched and eventually fledged, everyone would come back to sleep every night until their migration in the Fall! https://www.thebackyardbarnabee.com/home daily 1.0 2023-09-06 https://www.thebackyardbarnabee.com/spotify daily 0.75 2020-07-20
