A great replacement for any non-native ornamental grass! Indian Grass grows to a height of 6-8’, with rich green foliage, which turn a nice golden color in fall and persists throughout the winter. The small creamy yellow flowers form in late summer followed by long plumes of light brown seed heads. It grows best in full sun and well-drained soils, however it is adaptable to part shade.
