Erianthus alopecuroides
Silver Plume Grass

• This native grass has highly ornamental flowers in late summer.

• It can grow very tall and will form dense clumps.

• Prefers full sun and dry soil. Shade or too much moisture and richness will cause this grass to grow skinny and flop over.

• It is common in prairies and meadows but less popular in the garden.

• Drought tolerant and deer resistant.
