Indian Grass
The Grass ‘Indian Grass’, Sorghastrum nutans, is a clump forming native grass that reaches 4-5′ in height. Indian grass is one of the most important native tall grasses. There are prominent claw-like lobes or “rabbit-ears” at the point where the leaf blade attaches to the stem. Indian Grasses have plume-like seed heads that turn a chestnut brown, and later take on a grey coloration. This grass is fairly tolerant to drought conditions. Seeds are consumed by birds and small mammals.
