This is a monoculture of Big Bluestem used for seed production. Our grasslands should be full of forbs, sedges, and other grasses. Biodiversity creates healthy grasslands! #nativehabitatproject #nativegrasses #beef #grasslands #prairies #conservation
If you’re going to plant grass, make it native to your area, wildlife depends on it.
After much searching I figured out there are no true native lawns in my area (Zone 10b, SF Bay Area, California). The native grasses are all bunch grass. I originally wanted the grass for the dogs but see they don’t even care so the new plan is native plants with earthen walkways.

I figure a patch of grass for pets/kids with a bunch of natives around it is a million times better than doing nothing at all.
Yes but the dogs don’t even care about the grass. They like exploring around the bushes and shrubs.
Lol same in my yard
