Decorative Grasses

An ornamental grass is a grass-like plant that is used for its special decorative value. Examples of ornamental grass are various types of Miscanthus (beautiful reed), Cortaderia (pampas grass), Carex (sedge), Molinia (pipe straw), Festuca (fescue grass), Panicum (finger grass), Pennisetum (lamp cleaner grass) and Stipa (feather grass). Bamboo, which has been used in Japanese horticulture for centuries, also falls botanically under the grasses (Poaceae) and is therefore actually an ornamental grass.  Source: Wikipedia

Miscanthus sinensis
Miscanthus sinensis is a tall-growing, pollen-forming ornamental grass with reed-like stems and narrow leaves. White veins run in the center of the leaves. The first growth of this ornamental grass appears in the spring. As the summer progresses and the heat increases, this grass species only starts to grow considerably. In August – September Miscanthus sinensis flowers with beautiful, upright plumes. These panicles first take on a reddish brown color. Later in the fall they turn silver-grey. The foliage also changes color in autumn, from green to golden yellow. Finally, in winter, the leaves of Miscanthus sinensis slowly die.
