Set the bar nice and high with this distinctive yellow and green variegated perennial grass. With gold bands running across the foliage, ‘Gold Bar’ sparkles later in the summer with feathery plumes of white flowers - a perfect match with Hydrangea arborescens ‘Annabelle’ for a striking and contrasting display.
How to care for Miscanthus sinensis Gold Bar (PBR):
When planting, choose a site in full sun, incorporating organic matter to improve drainage and soil structure.
Water newly planted grasses regularly in their first summer; after that, they become better adapted to dry conditions in open ground. Lift and divide clumps every five years to maintain vigour.
For container-grown Miscanthus, water regularly in summer to prevent drying out. Leave top growth standing through winter and cut back to ground in late February as new shoots emerge.
