Blue Grama Grass is a compact native prairie species that brings textural interest, charming flowers, and ecological resilience to any landscape — from wild restorations to modern garden designs. In mid to late summer, Blue Grama sends up slim, upright stems topped with unique, horizontal seed heads that look like tiny eyelashes dancing in the breeze. These whimsical, one-sided blooms are not only eye-catching — they’re also a favorite among birds and small wildlife, while feeding native pollinators and beneficial insects. As the season shifts, the soft green blades turn golden tan in fall, offering year-round structure and movement, even through winter.
