Chinese Silvergrass 'Super Stripe' – Intensely Striped Maiden Grass

Miscanthus sinensis 'Super Stripe' is a patented cultivar (PP18161) developed by Probst and introduced in 2006. It features exceptionally bold, longitudinal striping of creamy yellow on green foliage, more pronounced than many other variegated miscanthus. This deciduous, clump-forming grass grows 4–5 feet tall and produces airy, reddish plumes in late summer. It prefers full sun and moist, well-drained soil, offering strong vertical accent and winter structure.
