Andropogon glomeratus is a deciduous grass (or grassy in appearance) with green foliage. In summer tan flowers emerge. Attracts butterflies making it an excellent addition to pollinator gardens. Grows well with sun and even moisture - regular water. Adapts to various soil conditions. Does well in alkaline, average, clay, gritty, rich and well-drained soil. A good option if you're seeking something heat tolerant, humidity tolerant, verticillium wilt resistant and wind tolerant.
