Description
Blue Grama is a long-lived warm, season native grass that is a drought-tolerant, perennial open sod-former. Found throughout the Western Great Plains and the Southwest, it is densely tufted and commonly grows from 6 to 24 inches tall. With gray-green basal leaves, it grows in bunches in the south but as a sod-former in the north in colder climates.
Deep-rooted and drought-hardy, you can count on Blue Grama to help with your rangeland or re-vegetation needs. The Blue Grama, Hachita variety is sourced from material originally collected in 1957 south of Hachita, New Mexico. It is the most drought-tolerant of Blue Grama varieties.
