No, they do not grow ten feet tall, even with plumes! They grow four to six feet tall without plumes. Here are some pictures, with and without plumes, of mature miscanthus sinensis gracillimus plants. I had 8 of them. They are wonderful! Please don't be afraid to plant them. They grow about 30 inches wide so plant them accordingly. They are less wide than MANY grasses - and are possible the best.
