Overview

Rising like a shimmering fountain, Miscanthus sinensis 'Silver Cloud'froths with narrow, variegated foliage creating a silvery haze that sets the stage for masses of soft, burgundy flower plumes. This break through cultivar outperforms its relatives by blooming two to three weeks earlier, flourishing even in challenging climates where otherMiscanthus struggle to flower. With a compact habit, this low-maintenance marvel brings prairie-style drama to even the smallest spaces, whether gracing containers, forming low hedges, or adding structure to borders.

Disease-resistant and adaptable, this versatile and highly ornamental grass thrives in full sun, offering a long-lasting autumnal display for borders, pots, and cut flower arrangements.
When planting, choose a site in full sun, incorporating organic matter to improve drainage and soil structure. Water newly planted grasses regularly in their first summer; after that, they become better adapted to dry conditions in open ground. Lift and divide clumps every five years to maintain vigour.For container-grown Miscanthus, water regularly in summer to prevent drying out. Leave top growth standing through winter and cut back to ground Level in late February as new shoots emerge.
