Crimson Grass

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

This small, red grass grows up to 1 foot (30.5 cm) tall. The asymmetrical stalks grow in large clumps that are resilient and they are slow to spread and grow.

When mature, the end of the stem eventually transforms into a large, light grey tuft.

During the early autumn, it produces very little pollen, and after flowering, it is left with lots of small grains.

It is suitable for use as a construction material
It makes a distinctive sound when the wind blows through it.
