Lush, strongly upright foliage topped with pink to bronze feathery flowers for months on end. The leaves are deep green with dots/stripes of straw yellow punctuating their growth. In winter the leaves soften to a coffee shade. It makes a wonderful feature or back of border choice.

Miscanthus ‘Puenktchen’ can be left to stand over winter where it remains decorative.
