Buffalograss
Bouteloua dactyloides
Buffalograss (Bouteloua dactyloides) is a perennial grass native to Great Plains US states (such as Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas) that can thrive in USDA Zones 3–9. Reaching a mature height of 4–8 inches with a dense, fine-textured stoloniferous sod-forming growth habit, it features grayish-green leaf blades and produces small, flag-like male seed heads. It thrives in dry, clay to loamy soils in full sun and is ideal for low-input utility turf, shortgrass prairie restoration, and high-durability soil erosion control.
