Panicles 10-28 cm long, 1-6 cm wide; branches (2)4-13 cm, widely-spaced, ascending to spreading; pedicels 1-2 mm. Spikelets 7-10 mm, pale to dark purple, with 2-5 florets. Glumes 1-veined; lower glumes 4-5(6) mm; upper glumes slightly shorter; lemmas 4-6 mm, midveins and back pubescent below midlength, lateral veins pubescent to well above midlength, midveins occasionally excurrent, lateral veins usually ending before the distal margins, rarely excurrent; paleas 3.5-4 mm, veins pubescent basally; anthers 1.5-2 mm.
