Little Silver Spider
Miscanthus sinensis Kleine Silberspinne
An ornamental, compact clump-forming variety with narrow, dark green strap-like leaves with an attractive creamy white stripe down the centre. The stunning foliage is accompanied by masses of tassel-like, reddish brown plumes from late September to December, becoming fluffy and fading to silver as plant matures. Perfect for growing in a container, it produces a pleasing effect which compliments bold-leaved plants and berrying shrubs very effectively.
