Purple Love Grass is a resilient and visually appealing choice that grows when the soil is warm, showcasing its unique beauty with vibrant purple flowers in mid-summer. This hardy grass is well-suited for challenging conditions, including poor, dry soil, making it an excellent option for roadsides, parking lots, or areas with minimal water access. It also withstands higher salt content in the soil. Grazing animals find Eragrostis spectabilis a delectable choice so beware of the occasional eater.
