Slender, clump forming sedge 12-16 ' tall, light green leaves and nodding inflorescence.

Bright green plant with pyramidal flower clusters and stout, triangular stems, 15-35" tall. This sedge is common in the wetter portions of prairies.

This one of our few upland prairie sedges. It forms large clumps and has delicate nodding flower heads.

Wonderfully tall bunch grass with delicate inflorescence. Undersides of leaves are blue-green, 3-5 ft in flower. Shade tolerant.

Because this is the dominant native bunchgrass in the upland prairies west of the Cascades from southern British Columbia to central California it is an easy choice for mass plantings. With its fine thread-like leaves of steely blue-gray that form tussocks 10 in. height, it is very beautiful too, even planted individually in the landscape. No concern over ecological invasiveness. Drought and deer resistant.

Medium-height bunch grass with thin, blue-green leaves, flowers in soft, tufted spikes, 3-4 ft in flower. Forms of pine-bluegrass can be found on dry, rocky bluffs as well as wet prairies.
