ELYMUS (WILDRYE):
Elymus is a large genus of about 150 different species of grasses that grow in tufts and spread by rhizomes. Its name comes from the Greek word elyo, "rolled up," due to the grain lemma and palea being tightly rolled around the seed. Wildrye grass is primarily used as forage for livestock and forms skinny, bristly spikes that can also be a showy addition to an ornamental flower garden or arrangement.
