A native, warm-season, perennial mid-bunchgrass that grows between 2-4 ft. tall with flattened sheaths. It is a tall, leafy, vigorous, late-maturing plant & a high forage producer. Under favorable conditions, it is a high seed producer. Leaves are bluish-green or green becoming leathery-brown at maturity. Seeds are small and fuzzy with twisted awns. It matures one seed crop per year in late September-early November. Until recently it was grossly underrated by Texas stockmen, but now is considered a highly palatable grass that is relished by livestock.
