Blue Needlegrass

This small, orange grass grows up to 1 foot (30.5 cm) tall. The needle-like stalks grow in small clumps that are resilient and they are slow to spread and grow.

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

During the late summer, it produces a fair amount of pollen; it can cause severe allergic reactions, and after flowering, it is left with lots of small grains.
