Name that Plant!

[truonda]

Need some help identifying this plant. It's looks like wheat but with dandelion puffs...

[IzzieK]

I can't help you but I can help push this thread up so someone more knowledgeable might take notice...

There are scads of plant varieties, unless someone happens to be familiar with this, few people would know. It is probably some kind of grass, though I can't see much of it. Some grasses have fuzzy seeds.

If you have a more documentary photo of it rather than such a stylized photo, identifying the plant might be easier for those in the know. (I'm not.)

I'm thinking Big Bluestem

[GeoBonsai]

Did the whole plant look like bamboo? Can you provide a non-stylized image? You got me curious!
Could be Miscanthus sinensis ‘purpurascens’ (Flame grass).



Could be Spodiopogon sibericus (silver spike grass, frost grass, graybeard grass):

Thanks Geri, I think you've got it! The Google pictures of flame grass look exactly the same as what I remembered. Also, I apologize about the stylized photo. I happened to really like the fiery rendition of the photo. I swear I did not it was called flame grass until now!

Sorry about the fuzziness, Nick. I was trying to get some nice close-up shots with the macro lens; didn't help that it was also quite windy that day!

This is a variety of Miscanthus sinensis . Which variety exactly is very hard to tell from this picture. To narrow it down, more
info is needed about the growing height, time off flowering, size of the leaves....
hope this helps.

Just for your info: the grass in the background is Miscanthus sinensis 'Punktchen' or 'Strictus' or Misc zebrinus. Typiccal for these are the yellow spots on the leaves.

I have no idea what species of plant it is, but I like the photo. Most of the lines are running diagonally from lower left to top right, so I would try removing the short one pointing downwards from the upper left of frame.

Sound like you might have gotten it identified.

Wasn't saying the picture is fuzzy; the plant is fuzzy.

Good catch, Greg. I will have to fix that.

And I appreciate all the help!
