{"product_id":"cord-grass-spartina-pectinata","title":"Cord Grass (Spartina pectinata)","description":"\u003cp\u003ePrairie Cord Grass is a formidable, warm-season native grass known for its aggressive growth and exceptional ability to stabilize wet soils. Reaching impressive heights of six to eight feet, it features long, arching leaf blades that turn a beautiful golden-yellow in the fall. In mid-to-late summer, it produces distinctive, comb-like flower spikes that are cross-pollinated by the wind. This grass is native to wet prairies, marshes, and swales throughout the United States and is particularly valued for its ability to outcompete invasive species like Reed Canary Grass. It provides essential nesting habitat for wetland birds and serves as a host plant for several specialized moths, including the Four-lined Borer. While its rhizomatous nature makes it too aggressive for small garden beds, it is an ideal selection for large-scale restoration projects or erosion control along shorelines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eQuick facts\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6–8 ft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSun:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full to Partial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil moisture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wet to Medium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Jul–Sep (Green)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLife cycle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Perennial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNotes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Warm-season, Aggressive, Rhizomatous\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNative range:\u003c\/strong\u003e Native to 41 states, including Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/database.hokseynativeseeds.com\/species\/spartina-pectinata\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSee the full growing guide and county range map for Cord Grass\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hoksey Native Seeds","offers":[{"title":"1 oz","offer_id":50926620508357,"sku":null,"price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1\/4 lb","offer_id":50926620541125,"sku":null,"price":31.37,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1\/2 lb","offer_id":50926620573893,"sku":null,"price":61.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 lb","offer_id":50926620606661,"sku":null,"price":119.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0752\/6567\/1365\/files\/Spartinadensiflora.jpg?v=1793659306","url":"https:\/\/hokseynativeseeds.com\/products\/cord-grass-spartina-pectinata","provider":"Hoksey Native Seeds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
