Orange Puffgrass

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

This big, orange grass grows up to 5 feet (1.5 meters) tall. The circular stalks grow in thin clumps that are resistant and they spread and grow quickly.

When mature, the end of the stem eventually transforms into a medium-sized, yellow puff.

During the late autumn, it produces lots of pollen; it can can cause allergic reactions, and after flowering, it is left with excessive amounts of tiny grains.

It is suitable for creating flexible, durable textiles
It is possible to grow it from cuttings.
The grains are bitter, but very healthy and extremely bitter.
