Best grown in dappled shade, in moist conditions. Fruiting is better in full sun, leaves are darker in some shade. Sometimes our season is long enough to allow them to self-seed, thickening the clump. Seedlings are easily removed. Prune foliage in late winter.
Almost native to our area.
Warm Season Grasses: These grasses are much slower starting in the spring. They do not push new growth until temperatures warm in early to midsummer. They flower later in the summer or fall with most blooms remaining into the winter. Most warm season grasses tolerate heat, humidity and drought; some even thrive in these conditions.
This grass exhibits some warm-season and some cold-season characteristics.
