Miscanthus sinensis ‘Staccato’
Striped Maiden Grass |
USDA Zone: 6-9 |
Plant number: 8.270.700
A compact selection of Miscanthus, also called Japanese Silver Grass. This forms a midsized mound of narrow green leaves with attractive horizontal banding of yellow. Shorter than ‘Gracillimus’ but with a similar texture. Well-suited to smaller gardens or growing in containers. Plumes are almond-white, appearing from late summer into the autumn then changing to silver for the winter. Foliage dries and turns almond in late fall, usually remaining attractive all winter long. Trim back to 4 inches in late winter/early spring. A Canadian introduction from Janus Gardens in British Columbia.
