The most widely distributed of all the prairie grasses, the tall grass Big Bluestem was largely responsible for the formation of the famous prairie sod. The distinctive three-parted seedheads resemble a turkey foot. Lush green leaves and stems change with the first frost to an attractive red-bronze color that provides landscape interest well into the winter. Grows in almost any soil, from wet clay to dry sand.
