What you’ll receive

Supplied according to the option you select for this product.

Pot Size: as selected when ordering.

Delivery and unpacking

On arrival, carefully remove outer packaging and check the plants against your order. Handle plants by their pot or root ball where possible, rather than pulling on stems or branches.

Check root moisture and water if needed. Until planting, keep the plants upright in a sheltered position and prevent roots from drying out. If supplied bare-root, keep the roots covered and moist and plant promptly when conditions allow.

Delivery arrangements and any charges are those confirmed for your order.

Important information

Miscanthus is not known to be chemically poisonous in normal garden use. The leaf edges can cut skin or irritate mouths, so wear gloves when dividing or cutting it back. Do not encourage pets or horses to chew ornamental grass clumps.
