Range & Habitat: This common grass can be found in every county of Illinois (see Distribution Map). It was one of the dominant grasses of the prairies that covered much of Illinois during historical times. Habitats include savannas and sandy savannas, black soil prairies, clay prairies, sand prairies, gravel prairies, dolomite prairies, hill prairies, cemetery prairies, barrens with scrubby vegetation, limestone glades, grassy fens, fallow fields, roadsides, and areas along railroads (particularly where prairie remnants occur). Indian Grass is often used in tallgrass prairie restorations.
