Miscanthus sinensis 'adagio'
'Miscanthus sinensis Adagio' is a graceful ornamental grass known for its compact size and elegant appearance. This dwarf maiden grass typically reaches a height of 3 to 4 feet, making it perfect for smaller gardens, borders, and containers. Its narrow, arching green leaves form dense clumps, creating a fine-textured foliage that sways gracefully in the breeze. In late summer to early fall, 'Adagio' produces delicate, feathery plumes that emerge pinkish-red and gradually fade to a creamy white, adding a touch of subtle beauty to the landscape. These airy flower heads persist well into winter, providing visual interest even after the growing season ends. 'Adagio' is drought tolerant once established and prefers well-drained soil and full sun to part shade.
