Maiden GrassMiscanthus sinensis
1. Fire Dragon
Click to display
‘Fire Dragon’ sets your garden ablaze with upright green foliage that transforms into intensifying colors of red and orange. When the temperature cools, this grass heats up. Soft, silvery plumes and scarlet foliage give ‘Fire Dragon’ a dramatic fire and smoke effect. If left uncut, plumes provide long-lasting winter interest. Flower plumes are held well above the foliage.

‘Fire Dragon’ works well in a variety of applications from garden borders to mass plantings or as a focal point. Once mature it is both drought tolerant and deer resistant.

2. Gold Breeze
Click to display
Gold Breeze is a recent addition to the Miscanthus family, and it's somewhat similar to Miscanthus Gold Bar, but offers some new and exciting features. It's a little bit more apple-green in color and more heavily banded. In late summer it has the most beautiful deep-red, airy plumes that emerge, that remain throughout winter.
12C-S 5'-7'48"-5'5-8
  
3. Gracillimus
Click to display
An excellent grass for the garden or landscape, screening or at water's edge. Striking complement to large-leaved plants or combined with berrying shrubs and evergreens for winter effect. Coppery flower plumes, beautiful cut or dried. Clump-forming.
12C-S 48"-6'36"-48"5-9
  
4. High Frequency
Click to display
‘High Frequency’ presented by Emerald Coast Growers is infertile and won’t self-sow. It forms 5' upright columns of showy blades, heavily cross banded with gold. High Frequency is a rust-resistant Japanese silver grass. Feathery red seed heads provide autumn interest, and it makes a great focal point in any garden or landscape. Great for larger containers, 1.5 gal. and up. High Frequency prefers full sun and is hardy in Zones 5 to 10.

5. Huron Sunrise
Click to display
The most profusely blooming Miscanthus. Though the green leaves with silver mid-ribs form beautiful clumps, the most outstanding feature of this new cultivar is its flowers. In late summer, a profusion of full, burgundy plumes sweep the sky.
12C-S 5'-6'36"4-9
  
6. Morning Light
Click to display
An especially refined and elegant ornamental grass. Fine leaf blades are green with clean, paper-thin, white margins that give the plant a silvery cast when viewed from a distance. Many consider ‘Morning Light’ to be one of the finest Miscanthus cultivars
12C-S  48"-48"36"5-9
  
7. Oktoberfest
Click to display
‘Oktoberfest’ is the gold standard in Miscanthus. The wide, deep green leaves with a white midrib form a narrowly upright tower about 4 ½’ tall before blooming.

In late summer or early fall, the foliage develops deep purple and red highlights which complement the showy flowers that emerge a rich shade of shimmering burgundy and copper, then mature into fluffy, creamy tan seed heads.

Compared to older Miscanthus like ‘Gracillimus’, this selection blooms much earlier (making it better for northern climates where the growing season is shorter) and has much improved fall color. It also develops its beautiful fall color earlier in the season.
