Songbirds and small game birds heavily rely on its seed heads for food, while the dense lower foliage provides vital ground cover and nesting structure. It also serves as a larval host plant for several butterflies and skippers, including the dotted skipper and green skipper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn managed landscapes and gardens, sideoats serve well as a low-maintenance ornamental grass. It forms neat, upright clumps of blue-green foliage that reach 1 to 3 feet tall that transitions into mild fall colors before finishing to a khaki hue by winter. Its tidy, non-aggressive habit makes it an excellent choice for landscaping around the house or in town.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Nativ Nurseries","offers":[{"title":"1 plug","offer_id":48043115905175,"sku":null,"price":5.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6 plugs","offer_id":48043115937943,"sku":null,"price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0005\/0315\/2697\/files\/SO1.jpg?v=1790609616","url":"https:\/\/www.nativnurseries.com\/products\/side-oats-grama-wildflower-seed-plugs-bouteloua-curtipendula","provider":"Nativ Nurseries","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
