'Darkhawks'® (Blackhawks)

Andropogon 'Blackhawks' is a striking type of ornamental grass, ideal for adding texture and height to gardens. This grass reaches a height of about 1.5 meters and has an attractive, upright growth habit. The narrow, dark green leaves turn a beautiful fiery rust color in the fall. In late summer and fall, 'Blackhawks' develops long, fluffy flower spikes that provide a stunning display in the garden and attract butterflies. This drought-tolerant plant is perfect for prairie-like and natural gardens and requires little maintenance. However, it is important that the plant receives direct sunlight to achieve its beautiful color.
