Indian Grass 'RUMSEY' (Sorghastrum nutans)

Indian Grass is a 3' to 6' tall native perennial warm season bunch grass. It is one of the 4 dominant grasses of the central and eastern native warm season grasslands. It grows in a wide variety of soil types and soil moisture, but cannot withstand being submerged for extended periods. It prefers full sun sites. The graceful plume-like bronze heads make this a great ornamental grass for gardens and landscaping. This is one of our most valuable wildlife habitat species, providing predator cover, thermal protection, movement and escape cover, nesting habitat, nursing areas, food, and much more for quail, turkey, song birds, deer, small mammals and a host of other wildlife. Rumsey Cultivar plant material is from Jefferson County, Illinois and was developed for forage in the cornbelt states.
