This cool-season wheatgrass is thickspike wheatgrass (Elymus lanceolatus). The old scientific name for it was Agropyron dasystachyum. It's perenial and grows up to 2 1/2 feet talls, with rihizomes and shallow roots. Like other wheatgrasses, the inflorescence is an erect, rather dese spike. It grows throughout western and northern North America in a variety of habitats.
The spikelets generally overlap slightly.
