Black Grama |
Description
Sideoats Grama grows quickly to 2' tall and 2' wide. It is very cold hardy and prefers full sun. Yellow flower spikes grow on on one side of branch from summer through fall. Foliage is green, narrow and pointed. Prune or cut down in early spring for clean regrowth. Irrigate every 2-3 weeks after established, especially during summer and fall. Some folks have a strong allergic reaction to the pollen or plant. This grass makes a nice meadow.

Water Saving Tip:
Even during our hottest months we don't need to water daily.
Give your plants a chance to breathe.
Water late at night or in the early morning hours to avoid losses to wind and evaporation.
