Sweet Grass (Anthoxanthum hirtum) 3-pack of pots
Can’t be shipped.
Sweet Grass is a colony-forming native grass that forms a thick groundcover. It spreads underground and out-competes many native plants—be very careful where you plant it. It probably isn’t suitable for smaller urban gardens. Instead, plant it in restorations, or in a pot on concrete where it has no chance of spreading out the bottom into soil below.

Design Tips
This spreads a lot. It easily out-competes other plants. Don’t plant it in small gardens. It will spread under edging, through the bottom of pots, and into lawns.
Great native plant choice for the Minnesota Lawns to Legumes grant program!
