Blue-green foliage transitions to scarlet-red tones in late summer and later in fall becomes a lovely deep reddish-purple. In early fall, tiny tan seed heads appear on the top half of the stems. An improvement over earlier bluestems, having a strictly upright habit.
Not available for the 2024 season.
