Notes
'November Sunset' eulalia (Miscanthus sinensis 'November Sunset') is a grass for borders, specimen planting, and accents. 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. Its arching clumps reach up to 96 inches tall and bring fall color. Reddish-brown blooms appear in summer and again in autumn, and birds visit the plant. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by.
Pairs well with Blue wild indigo, Quick Fire panicle hydrangea, and Silver sage.
