Pappophorum bicolor
Also called Pink Pappus Grass
Pappophorum bicolor is a species of grass known by the common name pink pappusgrass.
The plant is bunchgrass endemic to North America, where it occurs in Northeastern Mexico and in Texas (United States). It is found in the Great Plains, other prairies, meadows, pastures, oak savannahs, and along roadsides.
Pink pappusgrass is used for the revegetation of rangeland, seeding along roadways, and for native habitat restoration. It is good for wildlife, and it provides a forage for livestock.
