Winding Tail Grass

Grass type: Perennial (Grows upwards by winding itself around other objects and plants.)

This small, green grass grows up to 1 foot (30.5 cm) tall. The perforated stalks grow in large clumps that are resistant.

When mature, the end of the stem eventually transforms into a giant, brown tail.

During the late autumn, it produces excessive amounts of pollen; it can can cause allergic reactions, and after flowering, it is left with lots of small grains.

It spreads easily and often blanket large areas.
It is suitable for creating flexible, durable textiles
It can survive a very long time without water.
