Description
One of the finest native grasses. Prairie Dropseed is fine-textured, with handsome clumps framing loose, airy panicles in the fall. Seedheads offer subtle fragrance, similar to that of fresh popcorn and cilantro. Songbirds flock here to gather seeds. Space around 2 feet apart to make an impressive border. Plants prefer dry, gravelly, well-drained areas.
