Big Bluestem, Turkeyfoot 'Niagra'

In 2003, I planted two small plants in small pots in my backyard naturalistic garden in the good quality clay soil that is barely acid he...Read Morere in southeast PA. The plants came by mail from Limerock Ornamental Grasses Inc. that was a nursery of ornamental grasses in central Pennsylvania. I formerly had ordered small plants from there in my native Chicagoland. The company went out of business about 2005. The plants took well and have been doing well since. The only problen is that the Serviceberry tree nearby has shaded them some, so they are not as thick and don't stand upright as well. I've pruned back the tree, so they are improving again. "Niagra' is very similar to 'Kaw' but it is meant more for the northeast US.
