Schizachyrium scoparium 'Little Red Fox' PPAF

Little Bluestem

Move over, ‘Standing Ovation’! Schizachryium scoparium ‘Little Red Fox’ is the next big – or little – bluestem to grace our gardens, featuring impossibly bright red, crimson, and scarlet tones the instant the daylight hours begin to shorten. ‘Little Red Fox’ Little Bluestem is a shorter selection of the North American native known for its blue-green foliage and starkly upright habit throughout the growing season, typically reaching 24-30” before producing fluffy tannish seedheads that glow iridescent against autumn sunsets above the sensationally seasonal red tones. Tough and reliable, Schizachyrium scoparium ‘Little Red Fox’ is resistant to deer damage, tolerant of black walnut juglone, and capable of handling drought once established. The best part is that while ‘Little Red Fox’ Bluestem thrives in average, well-draining garden soils, it’s just as performative in rocky or sandy nutrient-poor conditions!
