Much of the sagebrush steppe on the Waterville Plateau has an understory of Agropyron cristatum and Ag. intermedium (crested and intermediate wheatgrass), or has been eradicated to make room for more croplands. In spite of such disturbance to the once native vegetation, Bromus tectorum is relegated to roadsides and there not very common.
Annual wheatgrass (Eremopyrum triticeum), along with Russian wildrye (Elymus junceus), alyssum, cheatgrass, kochia, Russian thistle, and greasewood, dominate the flats near the North Entrance of Yellowstone National Park. This area was dominated by crested wheatgrass 30 years ago and efforts to replace that introduced bunchgrass resulted in a diversity of introduced plant species. Greasewood, Sarcobatus vermiculatus, has become abundant since this photo was taken.
Annual false wheatgrass is distinguished by its terminal spike that disperses as a burr. The glume bases of each spikelet in the burr-head become inflated and hardened.
This rhizomatous grass is one of the few species occupying a small area where sheep were grazed ostensibly to reduce the abundance of certain invasive plant species (but exotic plant cover remains very high).
The brome-like spikelets arranged on wheatgrass-like inflorescences are distinctive of this genus. [Photo of M. Schmidt collections.]
A native grass on the edge of the dune vegetation next to the beach but greatly outnumbered by Ammophila arenaria (marram grass). This species is very similar to intermediate wheatgrass (Agropyron intermedium). The tough-textured rigid glumes have a notched or asymmetric tip just like those of Agropyron intermedium.
Although native, slender wheatgrass is most common roadside, in washes, and other similarly disturbed settings.

we made a little 'SUPER GREENS' powder mix for our smoothies- it includes wheatgrass powder, matcha, and spirolina!

Sagebrush steppe not burned during the Long Draw fire included an area on the north slope of Blue Mountain Pass along highway 95, which was dominated by crested wheatgrass and essentially devoid of cheatgrass.
The heads of crested wheatgrass are distinctive throughout the year including during the following year just as the leaves begin to green.
Although not surviving well from the July 2010 fire, Opuntia polyacantha, plains pricklypear, occasionally resprouted from surviving underground rootstock. The associated grass is the native rhizomatous Agropyron dasystachyum (thickspike wheatgrass). This site lies in the Idaho National Laboratory, northeast of the main southern entrance, Butte County, Idaho.
A full-packed weekend (October 17 & 18, 2009) of raw food talks, workshops and activities with David Wolfe, Michael & Andrea Delias, Jörg Walcker, and Piter "The Wheatgrass Messiah" Caizer. Topics included muscle building on a raw food diet, yoga, raising raw kids, raw food according to Ayurvedic typing (Kapha, Vitta, Pita), The Seven Valency Stages of raw food, and, of course, David Wolfe's wisdom on superfoods, superherbs, medicinal mushrooms and longevity.
Crested wheatgrass has established over large contiguous patches and sometimes far away from roads. This scene is well over one mile east of Lincoln Boulevard (here looking north towards Saddle Mountain).
A copy of our wheatgrass juice powder COA showing it's high quality and absence of any pesticides, irradiation, or other harmful chemicals. Get the best wheatgrass powder and wheatgrass juice powder than money can buy only at Florida Herb House!
rick made us kinda nasty shots to cure our hangovers- wheatgrass, spirolina, chlorella, matcha, soy protein with a blueberry chaser. it was... kinda gross!
Beardless wheatgrass is abundant in this area probably because of restoration efforts to revegetate once overstocked or burned range.
The days immediately before the July 2010 fire, the vegetation was still green and lush given that 2010 was relatively wet and cool.
The relatively broad multi-veined glumes distinguish thickspike from western wheatgrass (Agropyron smithii). The glabrous lemmas suggest this is riparian wheatgrass, suggesting a diagnostic trait of streambank wheatgrass can also occur in the more common form of thickspike wheatgrass. A native rhizomatous wheatgrass, the lemmas are often, but not always, conspicuously hairy in Agropyron dasystachyum, thickspike wheatgrass. This site lies along the ridgeline at the north end of Burke Park, Bozeman, Gallatin County, Montana.
Basin wildrye is sometimes common along roadsides but right at the edge of the roadbed or down in the roadside ditch where water runoff and moisture retention is higher than away from the road. Agropyron dasystachyum is common shorter bluegreen grass.
The abundance of Agropyron cristatum along roads like Lincoln Blvd in the upper Snake River plains country is limited to green stripping along the highway. The adjacent sagebrush steppe away from the highway harbors little if any Agropyron cristatum.
Thriving wheatgrass lovingly tended to by my mother. I love the contrast of the strong white roots, the blue container of water, and the fresh green blades of the wheatgrass, so vibrant.
Agropyron dasystachyum is somewhat common along the shallow sandy margins of the Saint Anthony sand dunes, Fremont County, Idaho. The broad multi-veined glumes and moderately hairy lemmas are distinctive of thickspike wheatgrass. The wheatgrass auricles are somewhat conspicuous in this species.
Agropyron smithii is perhaps the most common plant species in the prairie dog towns in the CMR Refuge area.
1.6 km SE Crow Agency, Custer Battlefield National Monument, 990 m, north aspect, plains of mixed grassland, common, June 1984 MONT.
we're not the only one's who grow our own easter basket grass, right?
wheatgrass grows fast and beats the heck out of fake, plastic grass.
as an added bonus, you can do wheatgrass shots after easter is over.
