Little Bluestem Grass Seeds
(Schizachyrium scoparium)
Little Bluestem is a hardy native prairie grass prized for its beautiful blue-green blades and striking copper-red fall color. Native to North America, this drought-tolerant warm-season grass thrives in poor soils and requires very little maintenance once established. It grows in attractive upright clumps that typically reach 2–4 feet tall, making it an excellent choice for natural landscapes, native meadows, prairie restorations, erosion control, and wildlife habitat plantings.
This versatile grass provides year-round visual interest. In spring and summer, its fine blue-green foliage adds texture to lawns and native landscapes, while in autumn it transforms into stunning shades of bronze, orange, and deep red. Little Bluestem is also beneficial for wildlife, providing cover for birds and small animals and serving as a host plant for many native butterflies and insects.
Little Bluestem grows best in full sun and well-drained soils, and once established it is extremely drought tolerant. It works well in low-maintenance lawns, pollinator gardens, roadside plantings, and prairie restoration projects. Its deep root system helps stabilize soil and improve overall soil health.
