Product Details



Grown on our own nursery
Andropogon gerardii 'Blackhawks', commonly known as Big Blue Stem, is a striking ornamental grass often referred to as the "monarch of the prairie". This beautiful grass stands tall and upright, making a dramatic statement in any garden. Its foliage starts off deep green to dark purple in the spring and gradually darkens to a rich purple-black as autumn approaches. During the summer, it produces lovely purple flowers, adding a splash of colour to its elegant form.
Ideal for mixed borders with perennials, Big Blue Stem's upright habit makes it an excellent structural plant. It's perfect for adding height and texture to garden designs, creating a dynamic and visually appealing landscape. Whether used as a focal point or part of a larger planting scheme, Andropogon gerardii 'Blackhawks' brings a touch of the prairie to your garden, thriving in a variety of conditions and requiring minimal maintenance.
