Coral Grass

Grass type: Perennial (Grows along the ground or other low surfaces.)

This short, pink-red grass grows up to 1 foot (30.5 cm) tall. The finger-like stalks grow in sparse patches that are delicate and they are slow to spread and grow.

When mature, the end of the stem eventually transforms into a tiny, orange tuft.

During the mid-summer, it produces a modest amount of pollen, and after flowering, it is left with a handful of tiny grains.

It makes a distinctive sound when the wind blows through it.
It releases hallucinogenic smoke when burned.
It is suitable for creating flexible, durable textiles
