  • SORGHASTRUM GOLDEN SUNSET
GOLDEN SUNSET® YELLOW PRAIRIE GRASS -

5-6 Feet Tall 2-3 Feet Wide--

Sorghastrum nutans Golden Sunset® PP33776 'MNYG318153' is commonly referred to as Golden Sunset Yellow Prairie Grass. This patented grass makes a good addition to the landscape. It is similar to Calamagrostis 'Karl Foerster', just larger. It has a persistent upright stature, olive-green foliage and yellow flowers in mid August. It develops seed heads late summer which can reach up to 12' tall.

Golden Sunset® is pest and disease free. It thrives in full sun in rich, silty-loam, well-drained soils. It can be drought tolerant once established. It is a larval host plant of the pollinator butterfly Pepper-and-Salt Skipper Butterfly and several grasshoppers. Its seed heads and clumping habit allows for a private nesting spot for many prairie-dwelling birds and wildlife.
