in fall. Prefers nutrient-poor soils but is less<br />

HA HA TONKA LITTLE BLUESTEM<br />
Schizachyrium 'Ha Ha Tonka' is pure Little Bluestem magic. Dense, fine hairs on the leaves s<strong>of</strong>tly<br />
catch the light and create a halo effect. The foliage is blue green with segments <strong>of</strong> red-orange and<br />
grey. 'Ha Ha Tonka' comes to us from Cassian Schmidt and Piet Oudolf. Schmidt collected seed<br />
from Ha Ha Tonka State Park in Missouri. He and Oudolf made selections from seed crosses, and<br />
this cultivar was the result. It has a rigid, upright habit. It is slightly taller than 'The Blues' and slightly<br />
shorter than Blue Heaven ® ('MinnBlueA'). This cultivar is part <strong>of</strong> the Piet Oudolf Collection. Variety<br />
protected by USA patent. Propagation without permission strictly forbidden.<br />
Warm season, blue green w/red-orange, 1.5’, 3.25’-4’ with bloom, sun, dry, flowers early fall, Zones 5-10,<br />
Origin: North America<br />

<strong>of</strong> Minnesota-St. Paul. Unlicensed propagation<br />
strictly prohibited<br />
