Once a dominant prairie grass, Indiangrass reaches 3 to 4 feet high and forms its dramatic seedheads from September to November. The beautiful golden plume-like seed heads are 4 to 12 inches long on 2 foot stems making this grass part of the tallgrass family. Indiangrass is a lowland species that endures extreme drought. It grows best in sand, loam, and clay moist soils of bottomlands and on lower slopes of hills. Grows in all regions of Texas and Canada to Mexico. Indiangrass is a larval food source for butterflies, and works in smaller landscapes as a beautiful ornamental accent. Turkeys use it for food and cover.
