Indiangrass – Sorghastrum nutans

ndiangrass (Sorghastrum nutans) is a warm-season perennial grass native to North American prairies, well-loved for its feathery, golden-brown flower plumes that appear in late summer and early fall. It can grow quite tall, often reaching heights of 3 to 8 feet, and adds striking vertical structure to natural landscapes and gardens. Its flowers attract various pollinators, particularly native bees, and it provides valuable habitat and food for birds and other wildlife. Indiangrass is also highly adaptable, thriving in full sun and a variety of soil conditions, and is known for its role in prairie restoration projects.
