Bigtop Lovegrass (Eragrostis hirsuta)

Bigtop Lovegrass is a 1' to 3' tall native perennial that prolifically self-seeds. This plant features an oblong or elliptic open, diffuse, and airy panicle of thread like branchlets and pedicils, which results in a lace-like appearance. Bigtop Lovegrass has a native distribution over all of the southeastern US and is usually found in dry open ground, open woods, and grassland fields. There is no known particular wildlife benefit except as a cover plant. The plant may have some value in erosion control in shaded areas due to its early growth.
