Does anyone know the correct way to control decorative grass (Dwarf
Variegated Miscanthus). As you can see in the picture, it doesn't look quite
right.


How old is that clump? It looks as though the center has died off -
if it's an old planting, it probably needs to be divided. If it's
rooted anything like the one I had, good luck - the roots are
incredibly tough to get out of the ground!

I seem to remember a backhoe doing well with such.
