Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) is a perennial warm-season bunchgrass native to North America, typically growing 1.5–2.7 m tall with deep roots and prominent rhizomes. It is highly valued for soil conservation, forage production, carbon sequestration, biomass production for biofuel, and ornamental landscaping applications.
