One of the most outstanding new Miscanthus selections! The variegated Cabaret Maiden Grass (Miscanthus sinensis var. condensatus 'Cabaret') tends to be a bit floppier than its erect cousins, but the two-tone foliage effect is grand!
This outstanding warm-season grass has wide, ribbon-like foliage that catches even the slightest breeze, and glints in the sun with a creamy white central stripe, and dark green margins that travel along the length of each blade! The late-season plumes emerge a wonderful coral pink to purple before changing to tan and rising 6-8 feet in the air!
Its relatively coarse texture is counterbalanced by its gentle flowing and cascading form. Cabaret Maiden Grass stands apart from other garden plants with finer foliage. Highly adaptable to a wide range of garden conditions, this Miscanthus does best in USDA growing zones 6 to 10. The botanical tan dried foliage, the stems, and plumes add dramatic winter interest as well as unique home décor and look fantastic both fresh and dried as floral bouquet additions!
Planting and Application:
Cabaret can be used in large containers and planters, but in cold areas, the pots will need to be sunken into the ground or moved into protected locations during winter to protect the roots from freezing. Punctuate the garden with these tall plants as anchors, exclamation points, accents, and Rock Garden focal points. Even thriving in moist soil, Miscanthus won't mind being around ponds and water features either!
The 6 to 8-foot height makes this Ornamental Grass ideal as a backdrop and back-of-the-border planting to add sound and motion to your landscape along with screening, shade, and privacy! You'll love the effect flowing effect of this living wall! Create outdoor rooms and install rows or groupings around your seating areas as graceful screening plantings.

#ProPlantTips for Care:
Warm-season Ornamental Grasses have the strongest, most vertical growth in full sun, but also do well in partial shade. However, they will be more flowing and less erect in less than 6 hours of direct sun a day. Requiring well-drained soil that is never soggy or water-logged, Red Silver Maiden Grass prefers to grow in average to moist conditions, and shouldn't be allowed to dry out. Low-maintenance and upkeep, Miscanthus only requires a once-a-year spring pruning before it resumes active growth for the season.
- Full Sun & Partial Shade
- Grows Anywhere, Even in Wet Soil
- Plant in Well-Drained Soil
- Adaptable To a Wide-Range of Conditions
- Prune Early Spring
Big and flowing, dramatic and easy-care, the Cabaret Maiden Grass will be your landscape's favorite new addition this year, but only if you hurry and reserve yours as soon as you find them in stock at NatureHills.com!
