Miscanthus x Gianteus

For those of you thinking about planting or adding this stuff these are some plants planted this spring. I bought the rhizomes from Maple River Farms. These are some of the best I have gotten. Even in a drought they done good. I haven't watered them any this year. They are a future screen around a plot. I think they will be doing their job next year.

Miscanthus in winter...can you see the deer target behind it?



Example of width after 3 years



Ours were started from potted plants from different sources but here is a good source for large scale plantings

Maple River Farms
 
Does anyone have any updates? I'm planting 100 rhizomes this weekend in poor soil along the edge of a clover plot.
 
What rate of atrazine should I add to a 4-gallon backpack sprayer for a pre-emergent? I had already killed the weeds with gly and disced the planting areas. I saw a post about it a few pages ago but I wasn't clear on the smaller quantity. Thank you very much!

2-4 qts should do it

Jess & crew planted about 4000 miscanthus this spring, all by hand



Roughly 4" deep and 1-1/2' feet apart although 3-4' is fine



Most were planted where we had Egyptian Wheat screens previously and sprayed with 4 qts atrazine



It should reach 4-5' the first year but time will tell



Conifer tree screens are best but miscanthus can provide a great screen while trees are growing or where they can't be grown. Ours came from Maple River and cost .37 a piece in quantity
 
Looking good Paul. That's what I'm doing also. Planting in last years egyptian wheat. Rain helping but some are a little light green. I did add N.
 
<!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <o:OfficeDocumentSettings> <o:RelyOnVML/> <o:AllowPNG/> </o:OfficeDocumentSettings> </xml><![endif]--> We planted 5000 miscanthus rhizomes this past spring and this what they look like this fall.






Jess sprayed 4 qts atrazine per acre but heavy rains pushed the herbicide deeper and encouraged a round of ragweeds.





Jess planted roughly 1.5 ft apart and it appears survival is high





They were planted for screening purposes but eventually red cedars will mature and the miscanthus will no longer be needed.

I too sprayed with atrazine and mine look like the ones covered in foxtail. Still looks like a good year for survival.
 
....so am in MI this week and picked up 1,000 rhizomes from Maple River Farms in Owosso to supplement my cedar screening for along some road frontage. In a few years my neighbors will really think I'm crazy. :)

Just got a couple hundred of them myself from the same place. I plan on getting them in the ground this weekend if it ever stops raining here.

How far apart are you planning to plant those? From what I've read they should be about 3' diameter when mature, correct? Would you go closer so they still cover before maturity? One row, or multiple rows? Just curious.

18" apart single row. In an ideal world I would be at 18" double staggered row.....maybe next year I'll add an offset row behind the row I'm about to plant. Don from MRF said they will spread horizontaly at least 4" per year so even at a single row by year 3 there should be a fairly solid "wall".

The whole area I am trying to screen was cedar at one point but the power company destroyed them all (before on owned it)....unfortunate.

Sounds like a plan. I was going to say, hope your cedar screen is on your side of any utility or road easements. We've had some cedars and other trees cut in the past by the county or the power company. Sucks if it's ones you would like to keep!
 
Early July and the 1,500' screening project has established fairly well. Next year I hope to get a lot more in. It will be fun to watch it take shape and fill out in the years to come. As you can see, my farm grows world class poison ivy if anyone is interested in transplanting any. ;)
