Little Bluestem (Schizachyrium scoparium ‘The Blues’)

Little Bluestem 'The Blues' is a striking ornamental grass prized for its intense blue-green foliage that shifts to vibrant purple, red, and copper tones in the fall. This compact, upright variety of Schizachyrium scoparium grows 2 to 3 feet tall and adds texture, movement, and year-round interest to gardens.

Thriving in full sun and well-drained soil, 'The Blues' is drought-tolerant, deer-resistant, and low-maintenance, making it ideal for modern landscapes, prairie plantings, and naturalized areas. Its delicate seed heads also provide food for birds in late summer and fall, adding to its ecological value.
