More Information

Description Variegatus maiden grass (Miscanthus sinensis) effortlessly brightens the landscape with striking variegation. Bold, white stripes highlight the green leaves, creating a refreshing contrast.  Silvery plumes shimmer above the foliage in the fall, continually providing texture and color throughout dull winters. This grass provides interest year-round and is ideal for creating a light, colorful hedge. It requires little maintenance and is unbothered by heat, drought, and deer, making it easy to grow!  However, if high winds or heavy storms come your way, it may need a little extra support with stakes. Details Botanical name: Miscanthus sinensis 'Variegatus'
Common name: Eulalia, variegated Japanese silver grass, maiden grass, variegated maiden grass
Zone: 5 - 9
Sun exposure: Sun (> 6 hours sun) to part-sun (4-6 hours sun)
Height x width: 5-9' X 4'
Flower color: Reddish-brown
Foliage color: White and green variegation
Season of interest: All year
Bloom time: Late summer
Features: Winter interest, rabbit resistant, privacy & screening, heat tolerant, drought tolerant, deer resistant, best for beginners
Uses: Background, border, cottage gardening, foundation planting, massing, specimen
How To Grow Soil: Easily grown in average, medium, well-draining soil.
Light: Sun (> 6 hours sun) to part-sun (4-6 hours sun). They tend to flop when grown in too much shade.
Water: Average. Prefers moist soils, but once established, it's drought tolerant.
Spacing: 3 - 6 ft.
Fertilizing: Too much fertilizer can lead to lodging or flopping over. The best time for applying fertilizer, if needed, is in the spring as growth is resuming.
Winterizing: Leave foliage standing throughout winter for visual interest. Substantial clumps tend to flop (or collapse when subjected to heavy winter snows) and often benefit from some support.
Maintenance & pruning: Cut foliage to a 6 to 12-inch-tall mound of stubble in late winter before new shoots appear. Mature clumps of ‘Variegatus (3-4 years +) produce substantial foliage, which sometimes needs support. Older clumps tend to die in the center leading to an unattractive shape and appearance. Dividing every third year is a safe rule of thumb.

Still alive, but slow

I planted about a month ago. It isn't much bigger than when I planted it, but I'm hoping it takes off soon. It seems healthy!

Love it! Live in wooded area & let lawn/grass grow without cutting it so it's kinna field like. The variegated grass, is a nice contrast of color at the edges (perimeter) of my natural look.
