Description
This native, warm-season perennial is well suited to the rocky, loose soils of
South and West Texas. Green Sprangletop grows one to two feet tall, and makes
a good landscape accent grass across the Texas Hill Country. It is best noted,
however, as a nutritious forage grass when mixed with other native grasses in
pastures.
