Description
If you can only have one medium to large grass in your garden it should be ‘Oktoberfest’. The color this grass displays is superior to other forms.
Compared to older Miscanthus like ‘Gracillimus’, this selection blooms much earlier (making it better for northern climates where the growing season is shorter) and has much improved fall color. It also develops its beautiful fall color earlier in the season. Plant this grass where its wonderful winter interest can be enjoyed.
Miscanthus will tolerate poor quality soil and acidic soils.
