Introducing... miscanthus lutioraparius! Growing up to 6 metres (20 feet) in height in a single season, this grass is currently the tallest known to cultivation. Even taller than the tropical garden staples miscanthus x giganteus and arundo donax, m. lutarioriparius hails from central China and is still rare in the UK, being sold by just two nurseries.
In this video, I plant some in my tropical style garden in the north of England.
Big thanks to Ben at Cliff Bank Nursery for sorting me out with this bucket list plant. Get in touch via cliffbanknurse... if you want one of your own.
