The Blues Little Bluestem Grass

(24-48” tall x 18-24” wide) 'The Blues' is an outstanding blue-leaved form of little bluestem grass.  The burgundy-red fall foliage is just as ornamental and provides late season garden color. Little bluestem is a native grass that thrives in drier, poor soil conditions; too much water or a rich soil can result in floppy growth. Planting ornamental grass provides year-round structure, texture, and beauty to the garden, while offering habitat for beneficial insects. Suggested companion plants include large growing Beardtongues (Penstemon), Coneflower (Echinacea), and Black Eyed Susan (Rudbeckia).
