Cultivation and Propagation

Calamagrostis extremiorientalis can be propagated by seed or division. Seeds should be sown in spring or autumn in a cold frame. When they are large enough to handle, prick the seedlings out into individual pots and grow them on in the greenhouse for their first winter. Plant out in late spring or early summer.

We have found it best to pot up the smaller divisions and grow them on in light shade in a cold frame until they are established.
