Notes
'NCMS1' eulalia (Miscanthus sinensis 'NCMS1') is a grass for borders, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. 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 has an arching shape and grows at a moderate pace. Birds visit it, and it tolerates salt. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything.
Pairs well with Anise hyssop, Sundrops, and Ornamental onion.
