An Intrinsic Introduction! Our first vegetative Big Bluestem is distinct from the species from the time it emerges. Darker green and more substantial foliage takes on red tips with cool spring weather. Starting in August thick stems start to turn red below the red flowers which deepen all the way into October. Upright plants grow 6' tall and 2' wide with maturity. Full sun and any soil but wet. PPAF
