Notes

'Bandwidth' eulalia (Miscanthus sinensis 'Bandwidth') is a grass for borders, specimens, and accents. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It blooms in early to late summer and again in early to late autumn, and birds visit it. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. This arching grass also tolerates salt.

Pairs well with Joe-pyeweed, Spotted beebalm, and Ornamental onion.
