About Rain Dance Big Bluestem Grass and growing it in Alberta
Its upright, clumping form adds texture and seasonal interest to prairies, meadows, and urban landscapes while supporting wildlife and pollinators. Heat and drought tolerant, yet adaptable to many soils, it may self-seed, spread by rhizomes, and is occasionally prone to rust, leaf spot, or browsing.
