This grass is appropriately named with seed heads that resemble a bottle-brush. It is a cool season grass that actively grows during the spring and autumn, when soil temperatures are cool. It provides texture and interest in shaded areas, and is ideal for planting under oaks and other deciduous trees that allow some light through.
