Solutions for Success™

Non-invasive Miscanthus

Maiden Grass (Miscanthus spp.) has been one of the most popular groups of Ornamental Grass in the American landscape.  Featuring great form, color, and reliability, the seemingly ideal nature has, until recent years, overshadowed the fact that this genus has been an invasive plant issue throughout portions of the U.S. 


Many people have advocated moving completely away from Miscanthus use but, the WorryFree® brand advocates a different solution that will lead to landscape success without invasiveness. 

Enter Bandwidth™ and Scout™ to the WorryFree® collection! These plants offer a homeowner-winning solution in the landscape and boast all of the form, color, and reliability of the original species.  Careful breeding created seed sterility that prevents these plants from spreading beyond the bounds of the landscape.

Miscanthus 'M77'' PP30,402


Upright in form, this grass makes a stand in the landscape with slender blades containing a white midrib. The feathery, cream-pink blooms give your garden a whimsical textural contrast throughout late summer and fall. Blooms a month earlier than M. gracillimus and it's non-fertile so reseeding isn't an issue.
