AGM. A clump-forming deciduous grass. This early flowering variety with thin, leaves and a delicate, refined appearance is one of the best Miscanthus. The flowers are an exceptionally rich, reddish-purple when they open and fade to silvery-pink. The foliage generally takes on strong autumn tints. Aug-Oct. H150cm S75cm.
Grow in any moderately fertile, moist but well-drained soil in full sun, but dislikes excessive winter wet. Like all Miscanthus, clumps will benefit from being cut back hard in the spring to encourage new growth.
