(Schizachyruim scoparius): Found in dry areas growing in clumps 2-3’ tall, taller in ideal conditions. Leaf blades 4-8” long, 1/4” wide. The blue-green foliage provides a great backdrop for prairie flowers in summer, and then turns a striking crimson in fall. It excels in dry sandy soils. Not recommended for heavy clay or damp soils.
Common planting rate using the no-till drill is 4–5.5 lbs of Pure Live Seed (PLS) per acre. If broadcasting, frost seeding, etc., the amount should be increased by at least 25%. (Description sourced from MDNR.)
