Eliza Waters 
this looks so amazing, I love the shape and color. ❤️☺️
Thank you, John. It really shines in the autumn breezes!
❤️☺️
It’s lovely, albeit unfamiliar. I learned it’s an Asian grass, and this cultivar is gorgeous. It reminds me of our native silver bluestem, which isn’t so full, but which can be equally appealing when backlit.
Thank you, Linda. Gorgeous when backlit by sun or moon, it comes into its own in the fall. It is a popular landscape grass here and has many hybrids. Mine has grown to monstrous proportions 8′ tall x 15′ wide. It would take a backhoe to remove it!
Oh, gracious! I never would have guessed such size!
I got a 12″ clump from my sister about 20 years ago and it must be happy as I do nothing to it, except shave it in spring.
The lighting is beautiful. I believe it survives in winter too?…
Yes, very hardy. It has grown massive, but it is off on its own, so is more like a shrub!
Beautiful! So luminous and ethereal. Never used to have it in Maine, but it has come north.
Yes, one of the better behaved imports. Thanks, Laurie! 🙂
Whimsical. Love it 😍
Thank you, Dawn, Nature dazzles!
How stunning Eliza!
Thank you kindly, Cindy! x
Absolutely beautiful. ❤
I love the contrast of light and dark in the photo too, it gives the miscanthus quite a dramatic appearance.
Thank you, Joanne! Thanks for stopping by, hope you are well. Are you finished with Uni?
Yes, I graduated in August. I’ve been so busy since then that I’ve been wondering where I found the time to complete a degree!
Congratulations!
Thank you. 🙂
Begs to be touched!
🙂 Yes!
I love the glistening!
Thank you, Donna. I wish I could capture it in moonlight… amazing!
You’ve captured its beauty, Eliza. Both the lighting and the textural detail are perfect.
Thank you very much, Kris. It is delightful this time of year.
You have caught it gleamingly well.
Thank you, Anne. It is esp. magical in moonlight. 🙂
Lovely shot.
Thank you, Rupali!
Beautiful! Mine haven’t flowered well this year at all.
Thank you, Cathy. Sorry to hear that… the drought had its effect, I guess. Mine is planted in the dampest part of the yard, so managed well enough.
So beautiful Eliza, I love the way they catch the light 💛
Thank you, Xenia, it is a delight!
So feathery and detailed. The history of acquiring plants is good to remember.
Thanks, Alice. That 1′ mound I axed (literally) out of my sister’s clump was hard won! 😀
I love grasses, but I don’t have any. My tall ones became too much to divide and I needed to share with younger gardeners with stronger backs. My short ones got beat up by the snow blower deposits. So, I’m left to ooh and aah over other gardens, and this one definitely deserves both.
Thank you, Judy. Yeah, no dividing this baby! It would take a backhoe to do that, lol.
Love it! Up until 4 years ago all I had was grass to mow, after adding so many varieties here not sure how I did without them.
Thanks, Eunice! Grasses are indeed a fine addition to the fall garden.
My little birds adore them too.
Feathery and shimmering, how lovely the light!
Thank you, Barbara! This one is esp. lovely these days.
Great job capturing a gorgeous display of light. 😊👏
Thank you, Pepper!
Wonderful shot! You should print it out and have it framed.
High praise 🙂 thanks much, Hien!
Such soft details. I really like grasses. They give such great dimensions to the gardenscape. Easy to care for and tells the weeds who is the boss! Great photo!
Thank you, Gary! Yeah, they are tough and pretty trouble-free.
Oh the light!
Hi Loree! Yes, their seed heads earn their name– ‘gracimilis.’
What a great photo of a lovely plant! It shimmers in the sun … like aluminum foil!
Thank you, Debbie… this one really does shine! 🙂
Beautiful light and texture, Eliza. 🙂
Thank you, Robin!
Lovely photo, Eliza. Nicely composed.
Thank you, Debra!
Love the way it captures the light
Thank you, Karina, it is a beauty!
Very nice Eliza! Great detail!
Thank you, Reed!
Nice capture of the light, Eliza. We love our Miscanthus.
Thanks, Steve!
Wonderful autumnal light. I had these in my Atlanta garden, so pretty.
Thank you, Amy. They really stand out in the landscape. Mine has grown huge!
Beautiful capture and lighting!🙂
Thank you, S!
Gorgeous – one of my favourites.
MJ
Thank you, MJ!
Stunning backlit beauties, Eliza! 😍👏🏻
Thank you, Jane! x
Is that what that is called? I had no idea. I love taking these in the beautiful sunlight, too. Gorgeous photo, Eliza.
Thank you, Dale!
🙂
So is that what it’s called? There are lots of this grass beside the ponds in the nature reserve and lining the edges of the canal.
Lovely shot with the sun on it.
Thank you, Vicki. An Asian import, and very popular worldwide it seems. 🙂
This kinda looks like the grass that would be in a Dr. Seuss book. Rare and wickedly lovely.
Ha, you’re right, very Seuss! Thanks much, 🙂
A beautiful subject for back-lighting … awesome capture Eliza!
Thanks much, Denise! x
😍
Thank you, Laura Denise!
