g72 - Miscanthus Late Hybrids
Add this to My Wish List
One of the easiest and most adaptable Fountain Grasses, these Oriental late hybrid sports long, silky tresses of shining silvery-cream all summer long. In autumn, the cold weather turns them deep gold, for a long-lasting colourful display Reaching 1.2 metres to 2.0 metres feet tall and spreading 90 cm wide in the sunny garden, this perennial is useful as a screen accent or specimen planting. The foliage is dark green at the bottom, shading to rich russet near the top of the slender, erect stalks. The plumes arch over slightly, creating a lovely rippled effect in the breeze. Will tolerate most soil types prefers moist but well drained, acid, alkaline or neutral and full sun. Don’t over water and cut down in the spring before the new growth starts.
