How to Grow and Care for Miscanthus sinensis 'Yaku Jima'
Growing 'Yaku Jima' is a rewarding experience, and with proper care, you can enjoy its beauty for years to come. Here are some tips to help you get started:
Planting:
Choose a location in your garden that receives full sun to partial shade. Prepare the soil by loosening it and removing any weeds. Dig a hole twice as wide and as deep as the container. Gently remove the plant from the container and place it in the hole. Backfill with soil, firming it gently around the roots. Water thoroughly after planting.
Watering:
During the establishment phase, water regularly to keep the soil consistently moist. Once established, 'Yaku Jima' is drought-tolerant and only requires occasional watering during prolonged dry spells.
Fertilizing:
Apply a slow-release, balanced fertilizer in spring to promote healthy growth. Follow the instructions on the fertilizer package for application rates. Avoid over-fertilization, as this can lead to floppy growth.
Pruning:
In late winter or early spring, before new growth appears, cut back the previous season's foliage to about 4-6 inches above the ground. This will rejuvenate the plant and promote vigorous new growth.
