Miscanthus sinensis 'Morning Light'
Miscanthus 'Morning Light' is an elegant ornamental grass selected for its finely textured cream and green variegated foliage, which creates a soft, shimmering effect in the garden. The narrow leaves form a graceful upright mound that adds movement and lightness to borders, while pink-tinged flower spikes appear in late summer, gradually ageing to silvery tones.
Its compact growth and low-maintenance nature make ‘Morning Light’ ideal for low hedging, mixed borders, or as a striking stand-alone specimen. Hardy and easy to grow, it thrives in sunny positions with well-drained soil, providing long-lasting structure and seasonal interest.
