Miscanthus 'Little Kitten'

When most people think of Miscanthus grasses they think of large grasses, this leaves people with smaller gardens something to desire. The small space gardener will be wonderfully surprised by this dwarf variety. This is a small, mounding variegated grass with attractive narrow green and white foliage with hints of red. An excellent choice for containers.
