Golden Puff Grass

Grass type: Annual (Grows upwards by clinging to almost any surface.)

This average-sized, yellow-green grass grows up to 3 feet (91.4 cm) tall. The very thick stalks grow in thick clumps that are flexible and they spread and grow quickly.

When mature, the end of the stem eventually transforms into a small, gold puff.

During the early winter, it produces a modest amount of pollen; it does not cause many allergic reactions, and after flowering, it is left with lots of large grains.

It is said to be able to live for hundreds of years.
It is suitable for creating fine, soft textiles
It can absorb up to 17 times its own weight in water.
