Description

One of North America's most beautiful native grasses. Upright stiff blue leaf blades are joined in late summer by towering feathery golden-brown seed fronds held aloft. Foliage transforms to golden tan in fall. Adds movement and majestic drama to any landscape. The large seed heads provide a welcome food source in fall for songbirds. Sorghastrum Indian Steel is a warm season clump-forming grass noted for its upright form and blue-green foliage. Indian grass provides four-season interest as it will retain some gold color throughout the winter. Tolerates a wide range of soils. This ornamental grass once covered large parts of the tallgrass prairie in the Midwest.
