Did you know much of North Texas used to be dominated by grasses that could hide a herd of buffalo? Bring some of the prairie back to your pasture or landscaping! Though the buffalo are gone, these grasses are still right at home in North Texas landscapes. Their expansive root systems make them excellent at improving soils and drought tolerant while above ground they benefit pollinators, birds, and other native wildlife. Their blue-green foliage, striking fall colors, and varied textures also make them an attractive addition to any landscaping. The tall grass prairie starter pack contains 8 grasses total, two of each of the following species:
Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum)
Big Bluestem (Andropogon gerardii)
Little bluestem (Schizachyrium scoparium)
Indiangrass (Sorghastrum nutans)
