It forms neat, upright clumps that bring a natural, meadow-like texture to borders, rock gardens, and low-water landscapes. Its graceful seed spikes dry in place and add winter interest, making it a favorite among gardeners who appreciate low-maintenance, wildlife-friendly plantings. \u003cbr\u003e\n Blue Grama Grass works well in native plant gardens, xeriscapes, container displays, and mass plantings where a soft, airy texture is desired. It pairs nicely with wildflowers and other prairie species and provides seeds that birds seek out in late season. Growth is clump-forming and steady through warm months, with foliage turning tan in dormancy before greening again in spring. It can be grown as an annual in colder zones or as a dependable perennial where winters are mild. \u003cbr\u003e\n Species: Bouteloua gracilis \u003cbr\u003e\n Variety: Blue Grama \u003cbr\u003e\n Type: Warm-season perennial grass \u003cbr\u003e\n Plant_Habit: Clump-forming, upright, fine-textured \u003cbr\u003e\n Sun: Full sun \u003cbr\u003e\n Soil: Well-drained, sandy to loamy, tolerates poor soils \u003cbr\u003e\n Days_to_Harvest: Not applicable \u003cbr\u003e\n Zones: 3 to 10 \u003cbr\u003e\n Germination: 14 to 21 days at 65 to 75F \u003cbr\u003e\n Sowing: Surface sow and press lightly into soil; light aids germination \u003cbr\u003e\n Spacing: 12 to 18 inches apart \u003cbr\u003e\n Notes: Allow seed heads to dry on the plant for later collection; low-water once established\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67664741400712,"sku":"AGY-228","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0717\/4648\/6408\/files\/il_fullxfull.8069257471_3uw2_be77426f-e794-4bd6-9d30-3645e356bad4.jpg?v=1791898406","url":"https:\/\/www.natesgardensupply.com\/products\/100-blue-grama-grass-seeds-bouteloua-gracilis-native-prairie-grass-drought-tolerant-ornamental","provider":"Nate's Garden Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
