This grass, found on dry prairies or in open woods, is either upright or arching and reaches 4 feet in height. In the fall, the entire plant turns silvery white! Unlike seeds of most other grasses, these seeds germinate best when planted fairly deep. Seeds have a way of sowing themselves naturally by means of a twisted awn that screws the seed into the ground!
