| Notes
| Fine blue leaves turn pinkish purple when grass blooms in late summer. Native to the short grass prairie. Will need a deep soak every two weeks during hot, dry weather especially if grown in lighter or sandy soil. Too much water or nutrients will cause it to flop. Good in a mass planting. |
