Ornamental Grass File
Description
 
Silver Arrow Grass
Miscanthus sinensis 'Silver Arrow'
Height:   5-6'
Width:   4-5'
Exposure:   Sun
Water:   Low, very drought tolerant
Hardiness:   USDA Zones 5-9
Pruning:   Cut back to 18" above ground in late winter before new growth begins to emerge in early spring.

Silver Arrow Grass is a miscanthus grass that has outstanding variegated foliage with creamy-white thin stripes of variegation thoughout the leaves and on the margins giving it a medium-bold texture. Unlike some of the older variegated forms of miscanthus, Silver Arrow is more vertical in habit and doesn't weep over.

We plant Silver Arrow Grass wherever the sun shines in areas that have well-drained soil. A great vertical accent for hot and dry spots in the landscape. Doesn't require the space that Pampas Grass does, and we think it's just as pretty, if not prettier. We often combine it in beds with other drought tolerant shrubs and trees.
