This one would require a very large mower:)
Miscanthus sinensis 'Adagio' 23W40 Miscan R2- (Kurt Bluemel) Dwarf Maiden Grass Miscan, Mature plant size: 4x4ft,, narrow, silver-gray blades which turn yellow in fall., USDA Hardiness Zone 5, Michigan Bloom Week ISO WW40, In Garden Bed R2 for 26 MONTHS (Lowes). Planted in 2021.
Missouri Botanical Garden:'Adagio' is a dwarf eulalia grass cultivar which is one of the shortest of the many Miscanthus cultivars available in commerce today, typically growing 3 to 4 feet tall (5 feet in bloom.) It is an upright, warm season, clump-forming ornamental grass which features extremely narrow, silver-gray blades which turn yellow in fall. Tiny pink-tinged flowers appear in tassel-like inflorescences above the foliage in late summer, gradually turning into creamy white plumes by fall as the seeds mature. Foliage and flower plumes persist well into winter providing good winter interest.
2023 note: a dwarf, but it takes up a considerable amount of room in the bgarden. A very strong grower, certainly at full size in the second year. An attractive plant.
