Bear Grass
Bear Grass, a striking native perennial from western North America, offers year-round interest with its evergreen, arching foliage. Blooming with fragrant, creamy-white flowers in late spring and summer, it adds a dramatic focal point to any garden. This low-maintenance, drought-tolerant plant thrives in well-drained soil and full to partial sun. Historically used by Native Americans, it's ideal for rock gardens and naturalized areas, attracting pollinators and providing long-term garden presence through its offshoots.
