<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/i><\/div><\/i><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Miscanthus sinensis is a robust perennial grass species that originates from East Asia and has been introduced as an ornamental plant in many parts of the world. It is particularly known for its tall, elegant, feathery panicles and its striking, often colourful foliage. The plant can reach growth heights of 1 to 3 metres, sometimes even more. The foliage is usually green, but some varieties can be striped or red in colour. The inflorescences appear in late summer to autumn and often persist through the winter. The plant has a high tolerance to a wide range of soil types and moisture conditions, which allows it to spread in many climates. Its ability to reproduce vegetatively by rhizomes as well as by seeds contributes to its invasive potential.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

The family includes mostly herbaceous plants with hollow, rounded or flattened stems and long, narrow leaves. Characteristic are the spikes or panicles as inflorescences and the small, mostly inconspicuous flowers. Many species serve as the basis of human nutrition (wheat, maize, rice, barley, oats, millet), as fodder plants or as ornamental plants (bamboo, ornamental grasses). Sugar cane (Saccharum officinarum) also belongs to this family.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Climate change<\/h1><\/div><\/div><\/i><\/i><\/span>Benefits from climate change<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>\nMiscanthus sinensis has not yet filled its potentially suitable habitat under current climate conditions.
