Additional Notes

  • Native to OntarioCool Season Grasses: These grasses do the majority of their growing in early spring and start again when temperatures start to cool in the fall. During the warmer summer months, they stop growing and some will even go dormant. Cool season grasses flower in the spring or early summer. Most cool season grasses grow best in a consistently moist soil. (But this one prefers drier soil.)Larval host for many moth and butterfly species, including the Appalachian Eyed Brown Butterfly. The seeds are enjoyed by many large and small birds. The habit of the plants preserves humidity at the soil level, improving habitat for beneficial insects and spiders.
