Planting Conditions Choose a sunny position with well-drained soil for healthy growth. Prepare the ground by removing weeds and loosening the soil before planting. Water thoroughly after planting and keep the soil appropriately moist while the grass establishes. Avoid locations that remain waterlogged.
Growth Rate Viridiscens develops into a clump of arching foliage, gradually adding height and volume to the planting area. Its growth and mature dimensions depend on sunlight, soil quality and growing conditions. Allow enough space for the foliage to develop without overcrowding nearby plants.

Description

Viridiscens Fountain Grass adds natural movement and texture to garden borders. Its flowing foliage and seasonal flower heads work well alongside flowering perennials, shrubs and other ornamental grasses.

Use it as a feature plant or combine it with other Miscanthus ornamental grass varieties for a layered planting scheme. It is a useful option for gardeners who want an ornamental grass that contributes structure throughout the growing season.

Pruning Advice

Leave the dried foliage standing over winter if you want to maintain garden structure. Cut back old growth in late winter or early spring before new shoots develop significantly. Use clean, sharp garden shears and take care around emerging growth.
