<p>Flame Grass (Miscanthus sinensis 'Purpurascens') is grown for its changing foliage that emerges green in spring and dances in hues of reds and maroons into summer. Large creamy tassels sprout above the plant late summer as the leaves turn more vibrant shades of orange and red. Miscanthus 'Purpurascens' attracts birds and butterflies and will do wonderfully wherever it's planted with at least partial sunlight. Drought tolerant and cold hardy, this ornamental grass needs little attention after establishment.</p>
