Zones 5-10 Miscanthus sinensis 'Autumn Light'
Autum Light Miscanthus, Miscanthus sinensis 'Autumn Light', is a hardy 4'-5' tall maiden grass with tiny copper-red colored flowers that bloom in late summer. This tall, clump-forming ornamental grass grows best in full sun, becoming floppy and flowering less in shady areas. Narrow, dark green foliage retains its color throughout the growing season, turning yellow with purple tinges before fading to tan in winter. Autumn Light should be cut back only in late winter/early spring just before new growth appears. |
