Description: Fakahatchee Grass is an extremely easy plant to grow. It forms a round clump of grass that looks very appealing while adding a natural touch to the landscape. Fakahatchee grass is also the larval food plant for the Byssus Skipper butterfly! Fakahatchee grass (Tripsacum dactyloides) has tall, green, grass-like foliage rising upright to form clumps that are between 4 and 6 feet tall and wide. The leaves have small, sharp teeth along their edges. The inconspicuous flowers are purple/rust colored. They appear in late spring on stout spikes that rise above the leaves. It will brown and dieback if exposed to extended periods of below-freezing temperatures, but it returns in the spring. In sub-tropical areas Fakahatchee grass is evergreen.
