Maiden Grass

Gorgeous and flowing, Maiden Grass (Miscanthus sinensis) is noted for its rounded, arching clump of foliage, and as one of the easiest plants to add to your landscape!

These Grasses are beautiful, carefree, and provide year-round interest! No wonder Ornamental Grasses have increased in popularity!

Grasses provide variety, beauty, and low maintenance. Maiden Grass is a warm-season Grass at its best behavior during the summer months when it has attained its full growth. The rustling growth provides soothing Zen and motion that calms the nerves and soothes the mind!

When fall arrives, the greens give way to an amazing display of color with eye-catching seed heads in gorgeous hues: copper, silver, cream, or gold!

Maiden Grass In Your Garden

This year-round landscape plant mixes well with colorful perennials, sun garden plants, Shrubs, and even Roses!

Since Maiden Grasses come in various sizes, finding a Grass that complements your other plants is easy! Remember to give all plants room to spread so they don't become overcrowded.

One Maiden Grass is a stunning centerpiece and standout specimen in your garden, but multiples are breathtakingly spectacular in masses! Watch them sing by your evergreens in rows, or singly in a large planter or container for graceful accents.

Ornamental Grasses are often tall enough for light screening and privacy. These fast-growing plants add instant height through the growing season and can be used as backdrops and rows or groupings around seating areas or to hide an eyesore.

Perfect as a dramatic specimen planting to highlight a garden bed, or your home's corner, or accent other plants as a facer plant to hide larger bare stems.

Caring For Maiden Grass

Maiden Grasses are a lovely variety of Ornamental Grass. These perennial plants love full sun for the strongest growth, and also do great in partial shade! Plant in a well-drained soil location that's moderately enriched and organic. Provide moderate and consistent moisture until they are established, and afterward only need moderate moisture in times of drought.

Warm-season Grasses may green up later in the spring, but really shine once the hot, dry summer weather kicks in! Prune your Grass down to 4-6 inches in the spring, and divide in late fall or early spring. Maiden Grass has become a "beginner gardener" delight!
