Narrative
Perennial, warm-season bunch grass with short, hard, scaly rhizomes. Stems are erect, often reddish to purplish at the base and reaching a height of 7 feet. Dense mat of white, silky hairs extends from ligule to upper leaf surface. Inflorescence is open, freely branched, and pyramidal. Since undergoing no purposeful selection, it should not differ in rate of spread, seed production, vigor, or behavior from naturally occurring switchgrass in this area. Anticipated uses include providing food/cover for wildlife, increasing species diversity, controlling erosion, and restoring native plant environments.
