Discover Tomahawk Indiangrass, the robust and enduring bunchgrass native to regions of North and South Dakota, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. Best known for its long-life and adaptability, this warm-season grass thrives in fertile, well-drained soils and omnipresent across the United States, with a hearty tolerance to diverse soil types from heavy clay to coarse sands. Though it favors moderately moist soils, it remains drought resistant, marking itself as the versatile ground cover of drought-prone areas. In the wild, Tomahawk Indiangrass seeds itself, expanding from solitary plants into lush, dense clusters facilitated by hidden networks of underground rhizomes. Its statuesque stature, reaching heights of 4-8 feet, makes it an excellent forage for wildlife and abundant shelter for deer and gamebirds. For ideal growth, plant on clean-tilled, firm, and well-prepared seedbeds, in the recommended planting range, between May 1- June 1 or in the fall. Embrace the hardy spirit of the American landscape with Tomahawk Indiangrass.
