Narrative
Cottle County Germplasm sand blue stem, a native, perennial, warm-season, long-lived bunchgrass. Sand bluestem is widely distributed throughout the western US from North Dakota over to eastern Montana and south to Texas. Cottle County Germplasm resembles big bluestem but has creeping rhizomes. Leaf blades are long, flat and strongly ribbed. Leaf sheath overlap and are keeled at the base, stems are flat at the base and will have a pale purplish color during early growth. The seed head is a pared raceme with a distinctive ring of hair at the base. Sand bluestem has a deep fibrous root system. Sand bluestem occurs with big bluestem on tighter soils but sand blue stem is usually the predominate species on sandier soils especially deep sand sites.
