Andropogon gerardii 'Blackhawks' is notable for its striking upright habit and deep burgundy to black foliage that intensifies in the fall. This tall grass can reach up to 5 feet in height and is perfect for adding structure and dramatic color to naturalistic plantings and prairie gardens.

For optimal growth, plant in full sun to encourage vibrant foliage color. Ensure the soil is well-drained, as this plant thrives in dry to moderately moist conditions. Water regularly during the establishment phase, but reduce frequency once mature, as it is drought-tolerant. Trim back old growth in late winter or early spring to promote fresh growth. This plant can adapt to a variety of soil types, including poor soils, making it a versatile choice for diverse landscapes.
