Ornamental Grass Miscanthus Punktchen
Easily grown in average, medium wet, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade. Tolerant of a wide range of soils from well-drained sandy soils to the heavy clays. Best in full sun. Typically forming an upright foliage clump to 1.2 m however it sends up unusually long flower stalks (to 1 mtr above the foliage). Finely-textured, dark green leaves with zebra-striped, golden yellow bands extending horizontally across the leaves at approximately 10 cm intervals.
Foliage gradually fades to tan after frost. Tiny reddish-brown flowers appear in tassel-like inflorescences well above the foliage in late summer, gradually turning into silvery white plumes in fall. Flower plumes persist well into winter providing good winter interest.
