Description
Prairie dropseed (Sporobolus heterolepis) is a gorgeous native grass native to North America, found mostly in the Midwest. With clump-forming leaves, it features a fan-like shape of graceful, fine-textured foliage. In summer, small, honey-scented flower spikes grow on the tips of stems to form a delicate cloud of color. Its seed heads also offer interest and movement to the garden, swaying in the breeze. Blooms range from light tan to reddish-brown, giving gardens a warm, inviting feel. It's a resilient, drought and heat tolerant grass, making it the perfect addition to wild and natural looking landscapes.
