Description
Best grown in sandy or rocky, dry to medium moisture, well-drained soils in full sun to light shade. Best in full sun. Tolerant of heat, humidity and drought, but generally grows taller with consistent moisture. Tolerates poor soils. This grass is caespitose (grows in dense clumps) and not rhizomatous. Notwithstanding its native growing range, this species has better winter hardiness (to USDA Zone 5) than many of the other species of Muhlenbergia.
