Up close of a seed group.

I've thought perhaps it could be a stipa or nassela, like the chilean needle grass which it does seem to resemble, but the photos up close that I’ve seen do not have the multiple seeds together grouped like something in the grain family.

The ”needles” on this grass are not stiff, and bend or break long before penetrating skin. They are slightly ”sticky” like Velcro, but definitely not dangerous.

I’m no expert, and others will pop on and correct me if needed, but that looks like cheat grass.

if it is, get rid of it immediately. Highly invasive and as bad as foxtails for pets when dry.

Thank you. I really appreciate the response. yes, after looking it up, that appears to be exactly correct. Bummer. It is very pretty. lol.

Thabks again
