Sideoats Grama- Bouteloua curtipendula is a warm-season grass with small oat-like seeds that dangle along one side of the stalk. Small bright purple and orange flowers are especially attractive when the grass blooms. Combine it effectively with other low-growing grasses and flowers in a meadow landscape in well-drained sand to loam soils. Sideoats Grama is a larval host plant for several Skipper butterflies and moths.
