More Information

Description The stiff, upright foliage of 'Strictus' Maiden Grass (Miscanthus sinensis) won't let you down by flopping midseason. Bright golden, horizontal bands paint each blade of grass, effortlessly turning the heads of passersby. Between the rigid blades and striped variegation, it's easy to see a resemblance to porcupine needles! Tiny, red-bronze flowers give way to showy silver plumes in the fall.  Both foliage and flowers are creative additions to fresh or dried floral arrangements! This distinctive grass is excellent as a background plant, privacy hedge, or even as a specimen. Details Botanical name: Miscanthus sinensis 'Strictus'
Common name: Porcupine grass, Eulalia, maiden grass
Zone: 5 - 9
Sun exposure: Sun (> 6 hours sun) to part-sun (4-6 hours sun)
Height x width: 4-6' X 4-6'
Flower color: Reddish-bronze
Foliage color: Variegated, green with yellow bands
Season of interest: Spring through fall
Bloom time: Early fall
Features: Winter interest, rain gardens, rabbit resistant, privacy & screening, heat tolerant, drought tolerant, deer resistant, best for beginners
Uses: Accent, background, border, foundation planting, massing, Ornamental, privacy, screen, specimen, waterside
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: 4 - 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 'Gracillimus' (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.
