Porcupine Grass

At the northwest corner of our backyard, we used to have Viburnum bushes, but they were half-dead, and we decided to rip them out and replace them with a variety of Purcupine grasses seen below, specifically Miscanthus sinensis 'Strictus'.  It's similar to Zebra grass, but its stronger blades keep it upright in windier conditions.  It's a variegated variety, which is prettier in our opinion, and these should grow 7-9' tall, spread out, and eventually make a nice visual barrier that will provide additional privacy.  You can expect additional blogs, maybe yearly, as they grow up.
