Gramma's Eyebrows
Blue gramma/Blue grama is such an attractive grass, growing wild here in Alberta.
Photographed this dry Blue Gramma grass at Nodwell Sanctuary a few days ago. Pretty the way it curls. This is a zoomed photo and cropped, so the original grass is only small.
"This grass resembles a small blue toothbrush! As unlikely as it sounds, that is what Blue Grama grass looks like.This perennial grass can be distinguished by its dense, curved inflorescence (brush-like) with 20-80 spikelets per branch. These purplish spikelets are located in two rows on one side of the stem. Each spikelet is approximately 5-6 mm long." www.livinglandscapes.bc.ca/cbasin/bluegram/bluegrama.html
