Introducing the majestic Sorghastrum nutans var. Holt Indiangrass, also known as Yellow Indiangrass. This North American prairie grass is a warm season Missouri native that was once a dominant grass of the tallgrass prairie. It grows 3-5 feet tall, forming upright clumps of slender blue-green leaves that turn orange-yellow in the fall. In late summer, the stiff, vertical flowering stems emerge and rise up to 6 feet tall, bearing narrow, feathery, light brown flower panicles highlighted with yellow stamens. These panicles mature to a bronze/chestnut brown in fall and continue to provide interest well into winter. Sorghastrum nutans var. Holt Indiangrass is perfect for prairies, glades, and open woods, and it's a favorite of birds and butterflies. Get this stunning grass and add a touch of the Midwest prairie to your landscape.
