Characteristic

Soft perennial plant [¹]. There is an extremely short underground stem and it is fascicular and takes out a large number of stems. There is the height of a rice plant in the base at 50-100cm slightly diagonally. The blade is linear, and, as for 20-50cm in length, the width, a mignonette is gritty from green with 3-9mm, flatness, but there is not the hair. The inflorescence occurs on the tip of the stem and stands straight into a stick form, and, as for the width, a large number of spikelets grow thick on 7-9mm, the surface at 6-15cm in length.

The spikelet has an extremely short pattern. The spikelet flattens it with the triangle that a point spread out, and a short Japanese pampas grass goes out of the both ends. This hits first, second 包穎 of the same type, and the appearing back midrib of the Japanese pampas grass is green, and a color is thin with quality of film other than it. I include only one floret in that.

Distribution

I am seen in the whole land of Japan. In Eurasian autochthonism, it is used as grass widely in the world.

including the close species

Smaller アワガエリ P. paniculatum was ever seen in Kyushu in the same sort commonly from Honshu. In addition, ミヤマアワガエリ P. alpinum grows in the alpine belt from the Honshu central part and to the north.

It is the other genus, but the thing letting stick inflorescence stand straight in the same way has Alopecurus aequalis and ヌメリグサ. These vary in the structure of the spikelet clearly.

Use

I harvest it and am dried and give a domestic animal it and am cultivated as grass for grazing lands. I am introduced into Japan from the United States, and what was introduced into Hokkaido in the beginning in the Meiji era is considered to be an opening. Oh, there are kinds such as poppy or ノサップ and is useful as bait of the rabbits. I become a wild animal widely now.

In addition, the timothy of the name is the name born with a thing in connection with Timothy Hansen which introduced this into the United States in the early 18th century in the United States. I am known for the name of Cat's tail in the U.K.
