Planting and Care Guide

Planting Tips

Plant in average to lean, well-drained to dry soil. Space 12–18 inches apart. Water thoroughly after planting. This native prairie grass thrives in lean, dry conditions.

Care Tips

Water regularly the first season; once established it is highly drought tolerant. Cut back to a few inches in early spring before new growth begins. No fertilization needed- lean soil produces the best growth. Largely pest-free. The extraordinary, eyelash-like seed heads that extend horizontally from the stems in summer and fall are uniquely ornamental and unlike any other ornamental grass. Exceptionally drought tolerant and heat tolerant once established. An outstanding choice for dry, sunny, low-maintenance plantings.
