Miscanthus sinensis Strictus 9cm Potted Plant x 3

Miscanthus sinensis ‘Strictus’ is an award-winning ornamental grass that brings bold structure, texture, and year-round interest to the garden. Its tall, upright habit is clothed in slender green leaves marked with striking horizontal gold bands, creating a dramatic, architectural display. In late summer, elegant silvery flower plumes rise above the foliage, swaying gracefully in the breeze and catching the light beautifully. This clump-forming grass is perfect for adding vertical interest to mixed borders or as a striking stand-alone feature.

Highly reliable and easy to grow, ‘Strictus’ thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, tolerating a wide range of garden conditions. Its tall stems and decorative plumes add beauty from summer right through the winter months if left uncut, providing movement and structure to dormant planting schemes. Awarded the RHS Award of Garden Merit, this hardy perennial grass is a superb choice for both formal and naturalistic garden designs.
