Description
Variegated Silver Grass adds a stunning splash of refined color and texture to your landscape. Its uniquely variegated foliage, with soft silver-edged blades against a deep green backdrop, creates an inspiring visual interest from early spring onward. Compact and well-suited for Michigan’s cooler conditions, it forms a neat clump that remains manageable while delivering a bold statement along borders or in mass plantings. In autumn, its foliage may subtly shift toward a warm tone, offering a pleasant seasonal transition without overwhelming its elegant simplicity. Highly deer resistant, this ornamental grass serves as an excellent accent in both landscape beds and container arrangements.

General Care

  • Sunlight: Thrives in full sun to partial shade; at least 5–6 hours of direct sunlight daily is ideal.
  • Soil: Prefers moist, well-drained soil enriched with organic matter; adaptable to various soil types as long as drainage is maintained.
  • Watering: Provide consistent, moderate moisture during the growing season, allowing the top inch of soil to dry between waterings—especially important in Michigan’s cooler climate.
  • Mulching: Apply a 1–2 inch layer of mulch around the base to help conserve moisture and stabilize soil temperature.
  • Pruning: Minimal upkeep is needed; simply remove any dead or discolored foliage in early spring to refresh the clump.

Enhance your landscape with the refined, textural beauty of Variegated Silver Grass—a modern, low-maintenance showstopper that offers a refreshing splash of natural elegance.
