Unknown Grass



Unknown Grass, AKA Turkey Foot
This grass is Andropogan gerardii, Big bluestem.  It is a prairie grass introduced at Gorman since the

plains of Western Ohio extend to the edge of Gorman.

The inflorescence resembles a turkey foot.  You can see the actual blooms on this image and a closerlook reveals tiny bees pollenating them.

This is a plant for which I have learned not only its common name but is scientific name.
