Water Saving Tip:

Replace turf with groundcovers, trees, and shrubs. If you have areas where no one uses the grass, patches that do not grow well, or a turf area too small to water without runoff, consider replacing the turf with water-efficient landscaping.

  • Description

  • Notes

Miscanthus are clump forming, cool season grasses; nearly indispensable additions to the garden. Blooming Wonder is a graceful, upward arching maidengrass. Leaves are green and about 1/2 inch across; the grass grows to about 60 to 62 inches. Plumes flower late August until frost, with the stalks ranging in height from 70 to 100 inches.
