GIANT REED GRASS

This is a nice plant but invasive in warmer areas, here it's a tender perennial. I lost this to a late April cold snap, again. After cutting and digging 2 pickup loads of roots I did not plant it again. At 22' tall it looks great. next to it on the left in the second pic is some Miscanthus Giganteus, a little hard to see.
