Indian Grass
Sorghastrum nutans
 
Indian Grass is a beautiful and resilient native ornamental grass that brings graceful movement, rich color, and ecological value to gardens and landscapes. Known for its tall, upright growth and airy, golden-bronze flower plumes, this warm-season grass creates a striking vertical accent from late summer into fall.
 
The slender blue-green foliage emerges in spring, turning vibrant shades of copper, gold, and rust in autumn, offering year-round visual interest. In late summer, feathery seed heads rise above the foliage, catching the light and swaying gracefully in the breeze. These seed heads also provide valuable food for birds and habitat for pollinators.
 
Drought-tolerant and low-maintenance once established, Indian Grass thrives in full sun and tolerates a range of soils, including dry and poor conditions. It's a great choice for prairie plantings, naturalized areas, meadows, and sustainable landscapes.
