‘Adagio’ Maiden Grass is carefree ornamental grass that adds drama to any sunny garden. This beautiful grass grows up to 4 feet tall and to 8 feet wide. It adds another foot of height in the late summer when fan-shaped plumes stand above the rest of the green foliage. When the first frost glistens across the landscape, the whole plant goes dormant, taking on a hay color that adds movement and drama to the winter garden.
Because it is wider than it is tall, it won’t droop in the rain like taller grasses. All ornamental grasses are deeply rooted and therefore great for preventing erosion. Unlike other shrubs, ‘Adagio’ Grass provides movement on a breezy day. These are tough plants that are not at all fussy. Give ‘Adagio’ average moisture and prune it to 4-6 inches tall in the very early spring before new growth emerges. For a great combo for sun tolerance and deer resistance, pair the ‘Adagio’ grass with low growing ‘Daub’s Frosted’ Juniper and ‘Pugster Blue’ Butterfly Bush.
