Description
Prairie Dropseed Grass makes an inspiring statement in your landscape with its delicate, fine-textured foliage and understated elegance. In early summer, fresh, vibrant green blades form compact, clumping tufts that are perfectly scaled for Michigan’s climate. As autumn unfolds, the foliage acquires a subtle bronze tint, and the slender seedheads—ever so light and airy—persist into winter, adding continuous visual interest. Ideal for borders, mass plantings, or low container arrangements, this refined native grass delivers a polished, textural accent that elevates any outdoor space.

General Care

  • Sunlight: Thrives in full sun; at least 6 hours of direct light daily is recommended.
  • Watering: Water regularly after planting to establish roots and promote vigorous growth; once established, water occasionally, depending on rainfall
  • Maintenance: Minimal care required; trim dead or damaged foliage in early spring to refresh the clump.
  • Deer Resistance: Highly deer resistant, ensuring your landscape remains pristine.

Enhance your landscape with the understated beauty and enduring interest of Prairie Dropseed Grass—a textural, low-maintenance showstopper perfectly attuned to Michigan’s climate.
