Be sure you take along a shovel, a pick ax, a crow bar, and an ax when you
go to dig the grass. I dug up a three year old clump of Zebra grass
(Miscanthus sinesis 'Zebrinus' - Zone 5) a year ago last spring, and the
process took almost an hour and a half. Over a third of the time was spent
getting the clump out of the ground with the rest of the time devoted to
chopping the clump apart and potting the separated sections.

As far as grasses go, Zebra is a relatively slow spreader, although it
develops a well anchored root system. I would check how aggressive the grass
is before digging and planting. Some grasses sold as ornamentals can turn
into thugs.
