In late spring to early summer, it produces tall stems lined with soft white, tubular flowers that draw consistent activity from bees and hummingbirds. Even after flowering, the plant keeps its shape well, which makes it useful in beds that need both texture and height without feeling overgrown. Additionally, it adapts to a range of site conditions, so it's a practical choice for both new and established gardens. Once settled in, it handles dry spells better than many traditional ornamentals and can persist in heavier soils when drainage is reasonable.

The foliage provides excellent color all season-long and creates the perfect backdrop for flowers. Densely mounded, Little Bluestem reaches a height of 3 feet by autumn, when it turns a striking reddish bronze, bearing illuminated tufted seeds. The rigid clumps can withstand snow and rain, allowing the reddish grass stems to remain upright for most of the winter.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardiness:  3 - 9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNative Region: \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"BONAP Map\" href=\"https:\/\/bonap.net\/MapGallery\/State\/Schizachyrium%20scoparium.png\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eBONAP Map\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBONAP Map Key Color Guide: \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Map Color Key\" href=\"http:\/\/www.bonap.org\/MapKey.html\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMap Color Key\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSun Exposure:  Full to Part Sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlower Color:  Green, Blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBloom Time:  July, August, September, October\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoil Type:  Medium to Dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMature Plant Size:  3'H x 2'W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlant Spacing:  2'\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHost Plant: \u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.butterfliesandmoths.org\/species\/Atrytonopsis-hianna\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eDusted Skipper\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.butterfliesandmoths.org\/species\/Hesperia-sassacus\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eIndian Skipper\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAttracts:  Songbirds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdvantages:  Drought tolerant, deer resistant, fall color, winter interest, tolerates humidity and various soil types.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLandscape Uses: Perennial border, cottage garden, meadow, mass planting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompanion Plants: \u003ca title=\"Pale Purple Coneflower\" href=\"https:\/\/bagleypondperennials.com\/collections\/all\/products\/pale-purple-coneflower-echinacea-pallida\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ePale Purple Coneflower\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca title=\"Yellow Coneflower\" href=\"https:\/\/bagleypondperennials.com\/collections\/all\/products\/yellow-coneflower-ratibida-pinnata\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eYellow Coneflower\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca title=\"Native Bergamot\" href=\"https:\/\/bagleypondperennials.com\/collections\/all\/products\/native-bergamot-monarda-fistulosa\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eNative Bergamot\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca title=\"Lance Leaf Coreopsis\" href=\"https:\/\/bagleypondperennials.com\/collections\/all\/products\/lance-leaf-coreopsis-lanceolata\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eLance Leaf Coreopsis\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeer Resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Bagley Pond Perennials","offers":[{"title":"Quart","offer_id":32750803157095,"sku":"BPQ100","price":13.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Trade Gallon","offer_id":50532786012476,"sku":"","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Plug 5 Pack","offer_id":51619025551676,"sku":"","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tray of 50 Plugs","offer_id":52746014196028,"sku":null,"price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0047\/1636\/3879\/products\/Little_Blue_Stem.png?v=1578672527"},{"product_id":"new-jersey-tea-ceanothus-americanus","title":"New Jersey Tea - Ceanothus americanus","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePhonetic: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003esay-an-OH-thus ah-mer-ih-KAY-nus\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShrubs larger than 1 gallon can not be shipped.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMost shrubs will not be ready before the first week of June when they are fully leafed out.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1 Gallon Pot - 6-9” Shrub\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNew Jersey Tea features glossy leaves, numerous bright white flowers and a mounding shape that make this compact shrub a popular garden member.

New Jersey Tea is attractive to hummingbirds, which eat the tiny insects that pollinate the flowers. It is a deciduous shrub with a woody stem system which supports the next year's growth and blooms on new wood.

It prefers to grow in full sun and moderately moist to dry soils, though it is highly adaptable and tolerant of drought once established. Its deep, fibrous roots can reach up to ten feet underground, allowing it to access water during dry periods and stabilize soil, preventing erosion.

Its flowering stems can reach heights of five to seven feet and bear distinctive, three-branched seed heads that resemble a “turkey’s foot.” The grass is wind-pollinated, and by early fall, it produces small seeds that mature and disperse naturally, providing food for birds and small mammals. In autumn, the foliage takes on striking bronze and reddish hues, adding seasonal beauty and texture to native plantings.

While it is not insect-pollinated, it supports pollinators indirectly by creating habitat and microclimates for native bees and butterflies. Importantly, it serves as a host plant for butterfly and moth larvae, including several skipper species such as the Dusted and Delaware skipper. In native gardens, big bluestem is prized for its ornamental value, resilience, and ecological function—it can be used in pollinator gardens, and for erosion-control plantings. Its tall, graceful growth and vibrant fall color make it both a visually striking and environmentally beneficial addition to landscapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardiness: 3-9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNative Region: \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/bonap.net\/MapGallery\/State\/Andropogon%20gerardi.png\" title=\"BONAP Map\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eBONAP Map\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/bonap.net\/MapGallery\/State\/Agastache%20foeniculum.png\" title=\"BONAP Range Map\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBONAP Map Key Color Guide: \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.bonap.org\/MapKey.html\" title=\"Map Color Key\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMap Color Key\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSun Exposure: Full to Partial Sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlower Color: Red\/Green\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBloom Time: August\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoil Type: Med Wet to Dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMature Plant Size: 5-7'H, 2'W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlant Spacing: 2-3'\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHost Plant: \u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.butterfliesandmoths.org\/species\/Atrytonopsis-hianna\" title=\"Butterflies and Moths of North America\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eDusted Skipper\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.butterfliesandmoths.org\/species\/Anatrytone-logan\" title=\"Delaware Skipper\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eDelaware Skipper\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.butterfliesandmoths.org\/species\/Cercyonis-pegala\" title=\"Common Wood-Nymph\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eCommon Wood Nymph\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.butterfliesandmoths.org\/species\/Hesperia-metea\" title=\"Cobweb Skipper\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eCobweb Skipper\u003c\/a\u003e, and \u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.butterfliesandmoths.org\/species\/Lacinipolia-meditata\" title=\"The Thinker\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eThe Thinker \u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAttracts: Birds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdvantages: Drought tolerant, dried flower.
