Miscanthus sinensis ‘Graziella’
Miscanthus sinensis 'Graziella' produces silvery white plumes in late summer with leaves turning copper-red in fall.
Miscanthus sinensis are one of the best grasses for year-round beauty at the back of the border: new green shoots in the spring become tall green linear leaves that form an elegant clump by midsummer. Attractive flowers emerge in fall. In winter the leaves turn straw colour and provide much interest. ‘Graziella’ is similar to ‘Gracillimus’ but produces silvery white plumes earlier in late summer and the leaves turn copper-red in fall. It has a nice upright, arching form.
