Miscanthus nepalensis

Nepal Fountain Grass

Himalayan fairy grass

Miscanthus nepalensis has a graceful, arching form, and typically grows to a height of 4 to 6 feet, with slender, cascading blades that sway gently in the breeze. The foliage is slender and graceful which add an element of visual interest to any landscape. As the summer months roll in, Miscanthus nepalensis produces feathery, silvery-white plumes that rise above the foliage, resembling a delicate fountain, hence its common name. These plumes catch the sunlight and create a mesmerizing shimmering effect.
