Turquoise Tail Grass

This modest-sized, brown or black grass grows up to 1 foot (30.5 cm) tall. The needle-like stalks grow in thin clumps that are durable and they are slow to spread and grow.

When mature, the end of the stem eventually transforms into a tiny, turquoise tail.

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