Indian Grass - SORNUT

Price: $3.50

My favourite prairie grass. It colonizes quickly and produces a plume of rusty-orange seeds. The leaves have a variety of colours from pinks to blues to reds to purples and greens in the fall. A dominant grass of Tallgrass Prairie in Ontario. It roots deeply into the soil to get water and nutrients in times of drought.

Other traits: Wildlife, Dye plant, Indian Grass is a good forage plant for cattle, wildlife and songbirds enjoy its seeds. It is used to restore land after being strip-mined or overused because it helps restore nutrients.
