This is a good selection for small gardens. Leaf blades (to 3/8″ w) are green and arch aracefully downward. Tiny buffy colored flowers with red tinges emerge in fluffy panicles above the foliage in Aug. – Sept. Versatile dwarf ornamental grass. Accent, specimen, grouping or mass. Borders, meadows, wild gardens, cottage gardens, naturalized areas or pond/water garden peripheries.

Has the horizontal yellow bands of ‘Zebrinus’ in a spikier, narrower package. A great specimen for the smaller garden; it blooms in September.

Finally!! At long last here is a dwarf from of Miscanthus ‘Variegata’ that looks showy and doesn’t carry some of the baggage of the full sized plant! ‘Rigoletto’ is half the size of ‘Variegata’ and keeps a dense, full form that does not succumb to opening up in the center and toppling over, a malady that can plague ‘Variegata’. Its shorter height, along with the strong, creamy white-and-green vertical variegation on narrower foliage makes ‘Rigoletto’ a perfect specimen for any space, large or small! It’s a perfect plant for grouping for a sweep of foliage color in any sunny to partly sunny area and is extremely easy to grow, tolerating most well-drained soils.

We love this grass! It’s hidden talents surface in early September, when cooler weather sets in. Deep green foliage suddenly turns all shades of red, orange and purple. Tall flower spikes add to the show. A compact, very upright form suitable for small spaces or incredibly beautiful in mass.

Dense, softly arching foliage with a vase shaped habit is the perfect accent in the landscape. In late summer, tall plumes of feathery flowers appear, but unlike other Miscanthus, are sterile and will not self-seed in the landscape. Outstanding as a specimen in the landscape, or as a summertime screen. Lovely winter interest for us, and a reliable food source for birds during the fall and winter seasons.

Narrow leaves are silver with a thin green center, a bright and stunning plant when a mature 4 fountain-like mound. Airy white flowers bloom September into October.

Narrow, arching foliage emerges green in spring, becoming bright red and purple in early May. Clump centers remain bright green for stunning contrast. Unlike most flowering perennials, ‘Little Miss’ will add dazzling color all summer, whether as an accent in the landscape or a bright border or as the “thrill” in a mixed container.

Dark green and gold foliage contrasts with showy red late summer bloom spikes. For border, accent or groupings.Cut back in early April. Upright clump-forming grass. Divide in early spring every 5-7 years. Prefers a moist, well drained soil in full sun.
