Miscanthus Sinensis 'Dixieland'

This midsized selection forms a graceful, upright mound of leaves boldly striped lengthwise with green and creamy white. Soft-pink plumes appear in late summer through the autumn, maturing into silvery seedheads.

The foliage dries and turns a light tan shade for the winter. Useful as a specimen, in the border, containers or for mass planting. Cut back to 4 inches in late winter or early spring. Clumps may be divided in spring before new growth appears.
