Bluegrass

Grass type: Biennial (Stores water in the thickened base of its stem)

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

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

During the mid-autumn, it produces very little pollen, and after flowering, it is left with copious amounts of small grains.

The grains are bitter, but very healthy and overwhelmingly spicy.
It is suitable for making paper
It can absorb up to 9 times its own weight in water.
