Miscanthus is a species of perennial, clump-forming grasses that do not have invasive spreading rhizomes, so they're easily contained within gardens of all sizes. Although they are hardy, many of them will not flower in cooler European summers, however this one (a sport of Miscanthus sinensis 'Gracillimus') is a particularly elegant and versatile form. Its slender green blades have narrow cream margins, and they arch gently at their tips to create a fountain-like effect. In warm summers, you will also be rewarded with reddish brown flowers that open in October and endure through the winter. - Garden care: Leave top growth standing through winter. Cut back to ground level late February as new shoots appear within the crown.
