Little Bluestem - Seeds

$4.00

Schizachyrium scoparium

Little Bluestem is a native warm-season grass prized for its stunning color and graceful form. In summer, its upright, blue-green foliage provides structure and texture to the garden, while in fall, it transforms into brilliant shades of copper, red, and orange, creating a spectacular display. Delicate seed heads appear in late summer, offering food for birds and adding a soft, feathery appearance that persists into winter.

This low-maintenance grass thrives in dry, well-drained soils, making it ideal for meadow plantings, prairie restorations, and drought-tolerant gardens. Its compact, clumping growth habit allows it to fit beautifully into borders or mixed perennial plantings. Little Bluestem is both ornamental and ecologically valuable, providing habitat and sustenance for pollinators and wildlife.

Seeds require cold stratification to germinate—read this quick article to learn how to accomplish this.
