Hilaria jamesii (4087124401)
Description:
Description: The terminal spike of Hilaria is superfically similar to that of a wheatgrass, particularly Hordeum. Each short lateral branch bears three spikelets with the central only being seed-bearing. These lateral branches disarticulate, much like those of Bouteloua curtipendula, leaving a naked main rachis of the inflorescence (unlike the shattering heads of Hordeum).
