Andropogon glomeratus, commonly known as bushy bluestem, is a robust, clump-forming native bunchgrass that reaches heights of three to six feet. It features an upright growth habit with blue-green summer foliage that transforms into a striking coppery-orange during the autumn and winter months. This grass is prized for its dense, fluffy, cream-colored seed heads that appear in late summer, resembling cotton candy. It thrives in moist to wet soils and full sun, making it ideal for rain gardens.
