Miscanthus Sinensis Malepartus Grasses

Miscanthus sinensis Malepartus (Chinese Silver Grass)

Miscanthus sinensis Malepartus Grass is a statuesque ornamental grass with fine, arching leaves with a distinctive central white stripe, which take on beautiful orange and red hues in Autumn. In late Summer it bears spectacular reddish-brown, silky feathery blooms, which appear to glow silver in the evening light. Lasting through to Winter, these elegant grasses look beautiful when covered in frost.

Miscanthus sinensis Malepartus Grass (Chinese Silver Grass) grasses are best planted in a sunny location in the garden. They look spectacular planted in swathes in a large border for a real wow factor with other ornamental grasses or create a wildflower meadow effect by planting with Achillea, Lavender, Echinacea or Helenium for a fluidly mobile display. These striking grasses can be used as a central focal point or on their own as a specimen plant thanks to their sculptural qualities or could even be used as an informal screening hedge.
