Maiden grass, also known as Miscanthus, is a large, warm-season grass that can reach 7 feet tall. It sends up light pink flower plumes in late summer, which dry to fluffy tan seed heads and are wonderful in flower arrangements. This grass provides height and fine texture, making it a perfect grass for creating privacy screens or a backdrop for perennial gardens. The dwarf varieties will grow happily in containers with flowering annuals and perennials.
