Description
Tall and shade-tolerant, Bottlebrush Grass (Elymus hystrix) has a wide native range, including most of the Midwest and all states east of the Mississippi except for Florida. It thrives in a woodland garden with sun or partial shade, and prefers dryer soils but will tolerate colder temps and wet, rocky soil. It can tolerate planting beneath Oak trees and Black Walnut Trees. The distinctive flowers start and end as brownish-white spikes with a burst of golden color midway through their blooming cycle.
The Northern Pearly Eye butterfly makes Bottlebrush Grass its larval host plant, with adult butterflies returning for pollen during the flowering season. Birds will enjoy eating the large seeds. Sow Bottlebrush Grass seeds in early spring or fall. This grass may become dormant during the heat of summer. Bottlebrush Grass self-sows but is non-aggressive.
Planting & Care
Shipping
No shipping data
As soon as your order is placed you will receive a confirmation email. You will receive a second email the day your order ships telling you how it has been sent. Some perennials are shipped as potted plants, some as perennial roots packed in peat. The ‘Plant Information’ section describes how that item will ship. All perennials and fall-planted bulbs are packaged to withstand shipping and are fully-guaranteed. Please open upon receipt and follow the instructions included.
Perennials and fall-planted bulbs are shipped at the proper planting time for your Growing Zone. Perennial and fall-planted bulb orders will arrive separately from seeds. If your order requires more than one shipment and all items are shipping to the same address, there is no additional shipping charge. See our shipping information page for approximate ship dates and more detailed information. If you have any questions, please call Customer Service at (802) 227-7200 or contact us by email or chat.
