Privacy, Versatility, and a Stunning Display of Color Year-Round!
With its dramatic color that changes throughout the growing season, upright, vertical growth, and hardiness in tough conditions, the Blackhawks Big Bluestem Grass is a landscape favorite for good reason.
A cultivar of a fine native prairie grass, the Blackhawks’ foliage comes in spring as a dark green, transitioning to red-bronze and then a deep, nearly black purple through summer, ending in fall with purple blooms. In the winter, the Blackhawks’ blades turn to a burnt sienna hue, providing contrast to frosty landscapes.
This beautiful grass provides visual appeal, a stunning display of color, and bold contrast to gardens or meadows. It’s tall and upright growth pattern provides privacy and a habitat for birds, pollinators, and other wildlife. Plant Blackhawks alone, as part of a stylish addition to garden beds, or as erosion control on banks and slopes.
The best part? Blackhawks are low-maintenance and tolerant of tough conditions like extreme temperatures or drought. As an added bonus, Blackhawks Big Bluestem Grass is rabbit and deer-resistant, so they will stand the test of time and provide you with privacy and ever-changing color all year long.
Don’t wait - get the all-in-one colorful, stylish, and versatile Blackhawks Big Bluestem Grass now before they’re gone!
Note: If you purchase this grass in fall-winter, it may be cut back for the plant’s health. If your grass is cut back, don’t worry - it will grow even happier and healthier next spring!
