Miscanthus sinensis is running through eastern KY including areas not particularly disturbed. Also I’ve seen ‘Gracillimus’ seed.

Very good content and Mr Avent is obviously very knowledgeable , but this video is very difficult to watch as there is so much motion it causes motion sickness.

We are glad you found the video interesting! We are doing the best we can with the camera work, but we are simple garden folk, not professional videographers as you have observed. And drones are out of budget!
