Warm Season Grasses: These grasses are much slower starting in the spring. They do not push new growth until temperatures warm in early to midsummer. They flower later in the summer or fall with most blooms remaining into the winter. Most warm season grasses tolerate heat, humidity and drought; some even thrive in these conditions.
Note: This grass may not flower in our region as it needs long, hot summers to produce abundant blooms. As a naturally-occurring cross between Miscanthus sinensis and Miscanthus sacchariflorus, the seeds of this cultivar are sterile, and it is propagated by rhizome.
