Only 12-14 in. in full flower, this is among the shortest of the native ornamental grasses. It is fine-leaved and produces blue-green seedheads which are suspended horizontally like tiny brushes from the tip of each stem. The plant turns tan when dormant. This is an important, drought-resistant, short grass in the mixed prairies and throughout the Great Plains and the Southwest.
Light: sun
Water: low, medium
