Product description
Miscanthus sinensis Navajo is a deciduous, clump-forming, perennial grass which is perfect for adding colour and texture to any garden. Narrow, arching leaves change colour as the seasons change, flushed with red in spring, fading to olive green over the summer months, and eventually boasting reddish bronze leaves in autumn.
In late summer, feathery silver flowers with a rosy tint open, remaining until late autumn or early winter. Plant Miscanthus sinensis Navajo in moist, well-drained soil such as chalk, clay, loam or sand in a sunny position in the garden. Pruning is best when leaves and flowers are dying away or in early spring.
Please Note: When purchasing plants please consider that each live item is unique and may, therefore, differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only. This plant will be supplied in a growers pot.

Instructions
Top Tip
Miscanthus thrives with a yearly trim in early spring before new growth appears. This helps maintain shape and promotes fresh growth.
How to Water
Water Miscanthus regularly during the first growing season to establish roots. Once established, they are drought-tolerant but will benefit from occasional deep watering during dry periods. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.
How to Plant
Plant Miscanthus in well-drained soil with full sun exposure. Dig a hole slightly larger than the root ball, place the plant in, and fill the hole with soil. Space plants about 90-120cm apart to allow for growth. Water thoroughly after planting.
