Adagio Maiden Grass - 3c

(Miscanthus sinensis 'Adagio')

Adagio Maiden Grass features dainty plumes of pink flowers rising above the foliage in late summer. The flowers are excellent for cutting. The white seed heads are carried on showy plumes displayed in abundance from early fall to late winter. Its grassy leaves are silver in color. The foliage often turns yellow in fall. The olive green stems can be quite attractive.

Adagio Maiden Grass is an herbaceous perennial grass with an upright spreading habit of growth. Its medium texture blends into the garden, but can always be balanced by a couple of finer or coarser plants for an effective composition.

This plant will require occasional maintenance and upkeep, and is best cleaned up in early spring before it resumes active growth for the season. It has no significant negative characteristics.
