Miscanthus sacchariflorus - Chinese silvergrass

Fertilization Miscanthus sacchariflorus : During the colder months of the year it’s not necessary to fertilize aquatic plants. A great part of the aquatic plants, during the winter, are in fact in vegetative rest.

continental : plant which needs to be exposed to direct sunrays.
The Miscanthus sacchariflorus is a rustic plant, which doesn’t tolerate the winter cold, even when the nocturnal temperatures are very low.

alpine : Let's locate the The Miscanthus sacchariflorus in a very luminous place, preferably sunny.
The Miscanthus sacchariflorus can stand the cold, therefore it can be grown outdoors year round.

mediterranean : These plants favour sunny exposures, where they can enjoy, even for the whole day, some direct solar rays.
Grow the The Miscanthus sacchariflorus in the garden, in full ground; it can stand the cold.

continental : We advise leaving the ground prevalently dry, watering from time to time, every 10-11 days; if there are intense rains and the weather is quite cold we can reduce the watering even more. Usually 1-2 buckets of water are used.

alpine : We suggest watering rarely, such as every 10-11 days with 0-1 buckets of water, but only when the weather is mild, and the substratum has been dry for days.

mediterranean : During this time of year we suggest watering only once in a while using 2-3 buckets of water, leaving the soil dry for a few days before watering it again. If the weather is cold irrigate rarely. Between one watering and the other 10-11 days should go by.

Treatments Miscanthus sacchariflorus : During the cold months many pathogens spend the winter in the ground, at the feet of our plants; let’s treat the plants struck by black spot disease or by leaf curl disease with particular attention by applying a wide-range anticryptogamic treatment, to vaporize even on the ground. Let’s gather and destroy the leaves of the sick plants.
