Description
Flame Grass is a show-stopper in Massachusetts gardens, thanks to its brilliant fall display. Its green foliage remains lush throughout the season before bursting into fiery red and orange tones in autumn. Tall magenta blooms mature to white, creating a striking contrast against the vivid foliage. Growing up to four feet tall, this Miscanthus is compact enough for smaller spaces while still making a big visual impact.
Flame Grass in Massachusetts thrives with a bit more moisture than other ornamental grasses, making it ideal for garden beds and borders. Its upright shape and graceful plumes work beautifully in groupings or as a single focal point. Plant Flame Grass in sun to partial shade for best results. This versatile perennial adds year-round structure and stunning late-season color.
Each plant comes in a #3 (3 gallon) growers container. The image shown represents an example of what you may receive. Please note that the height, shape, and fullness of each plant may vary due to natural growth patterns. Rest assured, we will select the healthiest and most vibrant plant for you.
