Morning Light Maiden Grass is a late-blooming variegated ornamental grass that forms dense clumps of narrow arching grass-like foliage. The narrow foliage is light green with white margins giving it an overall silver appearance and turns straw-beige by winter. Airy tassel-like copper-red plumes bloom above the foliage in late summer and gradually mature to silvery white and persist into winter. Best color in full sun and moist well-drained soil. Aggressive enough to be invasive in milder climates.
