Grazing North Texas
By Tony Dean
Hairy grama is a native perennial warm season grass that typically grows six to twelve inches tall but can reach heights of eighteen inches. Most of the leaves are near the base of the plant and are about 1/16 inch wide and two to eight inches long.
The stems of Hairy grama have from one to four spikelets projecting outward from the main stem. These spikelets are initially straight but develop a slight curve as they mature. To read more pick up the January 2016 issue of NTFR.

Parting Shot

Delicate microbes buried just beneath the surface. We walk by them, unbeknownst to us. Spores, spawn, and sclerotia, each with distinct characteristics. It is said that these fungi are all connected, speaking to one another as they populate the earth. The interconnectedness of all living things and the decaying world, such beauty lies within these otherworldly alien organisms.
