Little Zebra Dwarf Maiden Grass
miscanthus siensis little zebra
?Little Zebra?, sometimes commonly called dwarf zebra grass, is a compact cultivar that typically grows in a clump to 3-4? tall and to 2-3? wide. It is noted for its compact size, upright form, horizontally-banded foliage and wine-purple flower plumes. Leaf blades feature, at irregular intervals, distinctive horizontal yellow bands (to 1? in height) that retain good coloration throughout the growing season. Flowers appear in panicles above the foliage in late summer. Tiny flowers emerge gray-purple with the plumes having an overall wine-purple coloration. As seeds begin to form, the flower/seed plumes fade to creamy tan, often providing some winter interest. Foliage fades to tan after frost.
