Notes
'Cabaret' eulalia (Miscanthus sinensis 'Cabaret') is a grass for borders, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It grows in an arching form up to 96 inches tall and 60 inches wide. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Pinkish-white blooms appear in summer and again in autumn, and birds visit the plant.
Pairs well with Joe-pyeweed, Spotted beebalm, and Ornamental onion.
