Found in | Work cat.: Miscanthus for energy and fibre, c2002: p. ix (Miscanthus x giganteus is a woody rhizomatous C[subscript 4] grass species which originated in south-east Asia and was initially imported to Europe as an ornamental plant) p. 1 (the genus Miscanthus belongs to the family Poaceae. At present it is estimated that Miscanthus comprises about fourteen species. One hybrid which has generated considerable interest in recent years is M. x giganteus Greef et Deu. This hybrid was first named Miscanthus sinensis ' Giganteus' hort. Some evidence suggests that this hybrid is a result of a cross between M. sinensis and M. sacchariflorus. However this evidence is still not fully substantiated and the taxonomy of this individual and the genus Miscanthus has not been fully resolved.)
