Andropogon
Andropogon gerardii is a clumping perennial grass with a wealth of seasonal interest. In spring, a fresh crop of glaucous stems and graceful arching leaves rise from the earth. By late summer plants have attained a statuesque form clothed in bluish-green foliage and crowned with purplish tassel-like flowers. Leaves turn various shades of earthy red and orange in fall. And finally leaves and seed heads develop an amber winter color. Often called the “King of the Prairie” because it has the widest distribution of all the prairie grasses.
