no yellow on the eastern gamagrass either...just green and further expansion of the seed head population...all sorts of stages of development going on from newly emerged to flowering and on to maturing...hundreds of them all bent on making a bigger stand of grass...it won't happen here unfortunately and i haven't decided yet where to relocate the plants' offspring...my backyard is crowded but it is also somewhere a bit safer from bureaucratic machinations and communal changes of heart...room may be cleared..or i may (further) spite the neighbors...clearly there will be plenty of seed...which is fine because this grass is as difficult to start as it is to stop...my experience has been about a ten percent germination rate on direct sown seed...there are convoluted and painful processes to stratify the seed indoors for spring planting...i am disinclined to invest in fungicide among other difficulties...come november batches of seed are going into the ground....wherever the final decision put them.
