Question
Hello! I keep finding this grass and am not sure what species it is despite looking through all of my field guides. I have only seen it in winter so far, growing along power line ROWs in Kingston, Dartmouth, and Orleans MA. It has been see in both wetland and upland. Please let me know if you need any more information. Thank you!
Answer
Dear dinunziol, the grass you have observed appears to be a species of Andropogon (bluestem), in the grass family. It may be Andropogon glomeratus (bushy bluestem), but I cannot tell this from the images provided. Hopefully this headstart will get you moving in the right direction to find an identification for your plant.
