Big Bluestem (3" pot)
Sun: Full - Partial, Soil: Loam, Moisture: Semi-Moist, Height: 6 - 8 ft
Big bluestem is a perennial grass with blue coloration at the base of the culm and purple flower clusters. These flower clusters bear some resemblance to the foot of a turkey which has resulted in one of the common names for the plant being turkeyfoot. Big bluestem is used for wildlife and livestock grazing as well as erosion control, due to its extensive root system.
