Little Bluestem Native Grass Plugs (Schizachyrium scoparium)

The most striking part of this native grass is it’s reddish-tan color in fall, although it gets its name from the blue hue of the stem bases in the spring. Growing well in bottomland sites, Little blue stem is a great for establishing cover for wildlife such as whitetail deer and rabbits, and is commonly used in landscapes and restoration projects alike as it is a quick to establish on disturbed soils for erosion control. This perennial native grass is quick to seed and is successful in meadows and prairies giving food, shelter and nesting habitat to native bees, butterflies, birds and other wildlife. Their clumpy growth with many fine blades at the base provide excellent nesting sites, the seeds are eaten by small mammals and birds and are of especially high value as a food source for birds that spend the winter on grassland.

On your website, for your seed mixes. Can you provide photos of what those mixes will produce when mature? That would be very helpful.
