Everwilde Farms - 1000 Little Bluestem Native Grass Seeds - Gold Vault Jumbo Bulk Seed Packet

Everwilde Farms Little Bluestem Native Grass is a remarkably hearty grass variety, ideal for planting in open spaces. The species name scoparium comes from the Latin word for broom, since the stems of the plant are tightly crowded together. This prairie native is called bluestem because of the characteristic blue-purple stems at the base of the plant. The genus name Schizachyrium comes from the Latin words for split chaff, referring to the unique structure of the seed heads. In the fall of the year, the entire plant turns a bright copper color that makes it stand out on the tallgrass prairie. The native wildflower seeds come in resealable mylar packaging that keeps them viable for up to three times longer than seeds stored in paper or plastic pouches. Choose from multiple sizes.
