An exuberant explosion of feathery pink panicles, Miscanthus sinensis ‘Kaskade’ offers a dramatic display of rich texture, superb structure, and dynamic movement for your garden. Slender straps of foliage emerge a verdant green, turning copper in autumn and fading to pewter in winter. A spray of silky magenta plumes cascades from August to September, gradually softening to a shade of taupe. With a height of 1.8m, and spreading to 1.5m, this graceful grass will sway elegantly in the breeze, providing a soothing rustling sound and softening hard landscaping. Miscanthus sinensis ‘Kaskade’ makes an excellent addition to prairie style planting, coastal locations, herbaceous borders, and large containers. The fountains of foliage cut well, making a sparkling addition to fresh and dried floral arrangements. Leave the seed-heads on for winter interest and to attract birds to your garden. Miscanthus are drought tolerant once established, and will thrive in any well-drained soil, positioned in full sun. Miscanthus sinensis ‘Kaskade’ is an RHS Award of Garden Merit holder, recognised for its outstanding garden performance. A hardy (H6), herbaceous perennial which does not require additional winter protection throughout most of the UK.
