Product Description

Miscanthus sinensis ‘Nippon’ Common Name: Grass-Ornamental, Miscanthus Zone 5 to 9, Full sun to part shade Plants reach 4 to 5 feet tall and 3 to 4 feet wide.

Compact clumps of dark green leaves with bright silver midribs arch gracefully as they sway in the wind. Beginning in midsummer, striking, deep wine-colored inflorescences emerge and then age to cream. They are complimented nicely by the blanched almond fall color of the leaves. This variety is similar to M. ‘Gracillimus’ but has slightly wider leaves and an earlier bloom time. It is a strong grower.

Easy to grow and is a good choice for beginners, Miscanthus will grow in most any soil, from loose sand to heavy clay, and does not require good drainage. Grow this in full sun except in warmer regions where some afternoon shade is best. Fertilization is not necessary.

Miscanthus is versatile from a design standpoint; it can be used as a specimen, for massing or screening, in large containers, or at the pond’s edge. Plant this where its wonderful winter interest can be enjoyed.
