{"product_id":"slender-wheat-grass-elymus-trachycaulus","title":"Slender Wheat Grass (Elymus trachycaulus)","description":"\u003cp\u003eSlender Wheatgrass (Elymus trachycaulus) is a versatile and resilient native grass that adds graceful texture to any landscape. Characterized by its fine, upright stems and delicate seed heads, this cool-season bunchgrass typically reaches heights of 2 to 4 feet (sometimes up to 5 feet in ideal conditions). Native across much of North America, from northern Canada to Mexico, it thrives in a variety of habitats, including prairies, meadows, and open woodlands. It is particularly valued for reclamation and restoration projects due to its ability to establish quickly and tolerate diverse soil conditions, from medium-wet to dry. Blooming in early to mid-summer, this grass offers important cover and nesting material for birds and small mammals. Its adaptability to full sun or partial shade ensures vigorous growth, while its root system helps prevent erosion. This low-maintenance native grass is a sustainable, wildlife-friendly addition that supports the ecosystem naturally.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eQuick facts\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2–5 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 Medium-Wet to Dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Jul–Aug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLife cycle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Perennial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNative range:\u003c\/strong\u003e Native to 39 states, including Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/database.hokseynativeseeds.com\/species\/elymus-trachycaulus\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSee the full growing guide and county range map for Slender Wheat Grass\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hoksey Native Seeds","offers":[{"title":"1 oz","offer_id":50926579581125,"sku":null,"price":3.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1\/4 lb","offer_id":50926579613893,"sku":null,"price":6.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1\/2 lb","offer_id":50926579646661,"sku":null,"price":12.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 lb","offer_id":50926579679429,"sku":null,"price":23.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0752\/6567\/1365\/files\/elymus-trachycaulus-14-14.jpg?v=1793728799","url":"https:\/\/hokseynativeseeds.com\/products\/slender-wheat-grass-elymus-trachycaulus","provider":"Hoksey Native Seeds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
