Prairie Dropseed, Sporobolus heterolepis, is a beautiful, low-maintenance grass native to dry prairies over a large area of North America. A medium-sized bunch grass, Dropseed makes a great addition to rock gardens or hot, dry areas of the landscape. Dropseed is most notable for its popcorn-scented flowers in the fall. Plant with other drought-tolerant plants, such as narrow-leaf ironweed and blue aster for a xeric look!

This was my first order from Camp Creek, and I was very impressed with the size and health of the prairie dropseed plants received. This species, in particular, can take a while to establish when planting smaller plugs. The plants received from Camp Creek are in the ground, staying healthy, and already have an "established" look.
