Notes
'Undine' eulalia (Miscanthus sinensis 'Undine') is a grass for borders, cottage gardens, and specimen planting. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It has an arching shape, tolerates salt, and draws birds. Flowers appear in summer and again in autumn. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first.
Pairs well with Shirley Temple peony, Lemon Queen sunflower, and Lilac.
