Miscanthus sinensis – Huron Star
This bold and dramatic cultivar forms an upright fountain of arching green blades, each sporting a fine, pale white midrib that lends cool structural contrast in summer. In early fall, tall, copper-red plumes rise above the foliage on graceful purple stems and quickly mature to creamy‑white seed heads, offering an extended season of visual drama. As cooler weather approaches, its foliage transitions to vibrant shades of red, orange, burgundy, and gold, creating exceptional autumn and winter interest. Hardy and low-maintenance, 'Huron Star' is deer‑ and drought‑resistant, ideal as a specimen or planted en masse as a screen or backdrop in sunny to partially shaded gardens.
