Adagio Maiden Grass is an upright dwarf ornamental grass that forms dense clumps of arching grass-like foliage. The foliage emerges bronze pink and matures to silver green before turning yellow for fall. Airy tassel-like pink plumes bloom above the foliage in late summer and gradually mature to white and persist into winter. Best color in full sun and moist well-drained soil. Aggressive enough to be invasive in milder climates.
