Miscanthus sinensis 'Gracillimus Nana'
Miscanthus sinensis 'Gracillimus Nana' is a compact cultivar of the graceful maiden grass known for its slender, arching foliage and elegant form. This dwarf variety maintains all the desirable characteristics of its larger counterpart but on a smaller scale, making it an excellent choice for smaller gardens or container plantings. The narrow leaves of 'Gracillimus Nana' are green with white midribs, creating a delicate, airy effect in the landscape. In late summer to early fall, it produces feathery plumes of creamy-white flowers that add further interest and texture. This cultivar is low-maintenance and tolerant of a wide range of growing conditions, thriving in full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. With its compact size and graceful appearance, 'Gracillimus Nana' brings beauty and elegance to any garden setting.
