Where Can I Buy Dune Grass

Posted by arjayvee Z5 SW Michigan (My Page) on

Hi,

We live in SW Michigan along the lake (not on the lake - a couple of streets back) and we like the idea of planting dune grass instead of having topsoil shipped in and starting a lawn. Many homes in the area have dune grass and it works very well.

I'm looking for alternatives for purchasing the dune grass (Ammpphila Breviligulata - also called American Beach Grass) as there seems to be only one outlet nearby (Olde Paths) that I can find.

Does anyone out there have suggestions?

Regards,

Arjayvee

You can buy Ammophila breviligulata online, at New England Bamboo, linked below. They carry 3 different sizes of established plants.

awildbirdoasis.com sells plugs.

Here is a link that might be useful: New England Bamboo
