Dwarf Fakahatchee (Tripsacum floridanum)
I like the sun but will do okay in part shade.
I need an average amount of water.
Size: 2-3 ft tall x 2-3 ft wide
Bloom Time: Spring
Price: $5.99 (1 gal); $12.99 (3 gal)
The native Fakahatchee grass is a great addition to the damp areas in your yard. I form a nice clump and work well as an accent plant. The leaves are a bit sharp, but the lovely white, pink, and rust colored blooms make up for it. I am great at stabilizing banks of lakes, rivers, and ponds. Feel free to prune me back, but it is not necessary. I am a host plant for the Byssus Skipper butterfly.
