Miscanthus sinensis 'Adagio'
Choose Adagio Maiden Grass if you want a shorter, softer Miscanthus with late-season plumes for an open border; the tradeoff is cleanup—cut it back each spring and give it room so it doesn’t crowd tight plantings.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | A- | Its fine silver foliage and late plumes give strong movement without the bulk of larger maiden grasses. |
| Growth Rate | B | It fills in at a useful pace but is not the fastest way to cover bare ground. |
| Maintenance | B | Plan on one hard spring cutback and occasional division when the clump gets tired or too wide. |
| Deer Resistance | A- | Deer do not browse Miscanthus — the coarse, silica-edged blades are not worth eating. They will bed down in a mature clump from time to time, which flattens it until the spring cutback. |
| Small Space Fit | B+ | It is one of the better Miscanthus picks for tighter beds, though it still needs breathing room. |
| Screening Value | C+ | It can soften views, but it is not the plant to choose for a dense privacy screen. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Adagio when a customer likes Miscanthus texture but not the size of the larger types. Let winter stems stand if you like, then cut them back before new growth pushes.

Showed up on time and planted it perfectly. I indicated a light we had to illuminate it and they placed it for optimal lighting. Worked fast and left a clean worksite. First rate!
Really great website, communication and installation. Very happy customer and would recommend them.
They delivered three trees: a big linden, a big poplar and a little spice bush with install on the big trees. The install guys were great and professional and fast. All the trees looked good with minimal damage.
I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!
The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
They're very "leggy" right now but that's not unexpected in the fall. Otherwise, they look healthy, and we're looking forward to seeing them next year.
These look so good! They're nice and full and lush. Should be amazing next summer.
So far so good! Ordering was easy. So was pickup. We're looking forward to seeing how it does in the spring.
