Eastern Gamma Grass
03-Jun-16
Plot Checkup
Just wanted to update this habitat project on our home property. This Eastern Gamma grass was planted 5 years ago. Because of 2 years of drought, until this year I had about 6 clumps of this stuff. This year though, I guess after proper moisture and stratification, the north end of the NG area (only portion planted in EG.) this year just took off. All of the plants have also seeded out. It is really something to look at. Both bluebird boxes have nesting couples in them so it looks like nature likes it!
This is the southern half of the area where the EG is not visible. This is the original NG I planted which is Big and Little Bluestem, Switch, Indian, Side Oats.
