Miscanthus sinensis ‘Gracillimus’ (Maiden Grass / Silver Feather Grass)

Miscanthus sinensis ‘Gracillimus’ is a classic ornamental grass prized for its graceful, arching foliage and elegant fall plumes. Fine, silver-veined green leaves form dense, rounded mounds that sway beautifully in the wind, creating dynamic movement in the garden.

In early autumn, fan-like flower plumes emerge with a subtle reddish tint, maturing to soft silvery-white. The foliage itself develops golden-yellow tones in fall, providing layered seasonal interest.

Versatile and low-maintenance, ‘Gracillimus’ is ideal as a specimen plant, for mass plantings, screening, in large containers, or at the edge of ponds. Its year-round structure and winter interest make it a standout feature in any landscape.
