Common little-bluestem is a grass found throughout the Eastern United States and is an ideal choice for low maintenance landscaping and erosion control. 'Blue Heaven'™ is noted for its blue-gray foliage that turns a stunning burgundy-red in the fall. It is best planted in mass or tucked between other native perennials and works in both formal and informal landscapes. Its unique, blue-green foliage and tall, upright form will stand out in any setting. Leave it standing in winter and cut back in spring to encourage fresh new growth.
