Miscanthus sinensis – Lady in Red
A standout ornamental grass, Miscanthus sinensis ‘Lady in Red’ starts the season with deep purple-green foliage that intensifies into vibrant red leaves in autumn. In late summer, it sends up silvery white, feathery plumes with dark purple anthers that float above the foliage, adding airy texture and visual contrast. Its upright, arching habit gives movement and structure to garden beds, borders, or large containers. With its dramatic seasonal color and low maintenance nature, ‘Lady in Red’ is a striking choice for gardeners seeking long-season interest.
