One of the most popular ornamental prairie grasses. Little Bluestem has blue-colored leaves in early summer, changing to a warm shade of bronze in fall.

Little Bluestem forms a stiff column of colorful stems in fall that stand up throughout winter, providing year-round color.

Also available in 12-packs of plugs here
