Delightful and versatile are perfect descriptions of 'Little Bluestem'. This drought-tolerant native grass is a gentle blue-green early in the growing season, with delicate seed heads appearing from July through September. The ability to beautify the prairie while providing forage, seeds, and cover for wildlife, make this grass one of Nature's finest. You will love the winter interest it adds out-of-doors, or in dried arrangements in your home.
