Miscanthus sinensis 'Adagio'

Adagio is a dwarf Miscanthus cultivar which is one of the shortest available on the market today, typically growing to only 3-4 feet tall with an equal width. It is an upright, warm season, clump-forming ornamental grass which features extremely narrow, silver-gray blades which turn yellow in fall. Attractive, tassel-like inflorescences rise above the foliage in late summer, gradually turning into creamy white fluffy plumes by fall as the seeds mature.  It is very heat and drought tolerant and free from any serious pest or disease problems.

Adagio Dwarf Maiden Grass can be planted in landscape beds or container plantings. It's dwarf size makes it a good selection for smaller gardens. It is useful as a stand alone specimen or in small to large groups in landscape beds or foundation plantings.
