Miscanthus sinensis var. purpurascens
Autumn Red Silver Grass
This striking, clump forming grass starts as pretty green blades in spring that gradually turn reddish toward the end of summer. As fall progresses the color turns purplish with bright orange-red. By mid-winter it is a deep burgundy color, with seed head turning from silvery to a rich straw-gold. A more upright compact miscanthus that will bring 4 season satisfaction to any garden!
