Prairie Dropseed, Sporobolus heterolepis, is a beautiful, low-maintenance grass native to dry prairies over a large area of North America. A medium-sized bunch grass, Dropseed makes a great addition to rock gardens or hot, dry areas of the landscape. Dropseed is most notable for its popcorn-scented flowers in the fall. Plant with other drought-tolerant plants, such as narrow-leaf ironweed and blue aster for a xeric look!
