| ID Features: | The leaf blade is narrow; flat or slightly rolled inward, giving a threadlike appearance when dry. The leaf sheath is mostly basal, rounded, and shorter than the internodes. The ligule has a tuft of long hairs. The seedhead is a spike-like, pinkish panicle 4 to 5 inches long. The lemmas are somewhat hard and the end is dissected into about 12 awns of unequal length about as long as lemmas with the glumes transparent. | |
