Little Kitten Maiden Grass (Miscanthus sinensis 'Little Kitten') is an herbaceous, ornamental perennial grass. Plant a few of these for a lovely groundcover or naturalized look in your side yard. With their dwarf nature, these are also ideal as container plants, or even just one for an elegant accent for your perennial bed.
Maiden Grass cultivars have long been beloved by gardeners for their beauty and hardiness, and Little Kitten Maiden Grass is no exception. The long, slender leaves possess a sun-catching, silver tint and will present a gentle, cascading effect in the landscape.
Pink-tinted, silvery-white flower spikes rise up above the mounded foliage in autumn and (to the delight of your feathered friends), will persist into the winter months. Maiden Grass' foliage even turns gold for fall, yet another decorative feature of an already beautiful plant. A warm-season grass, the summer and fall effect is well worth the wait for it to start growing in the spring!
