Plants sometimes cespitose, strongly rhizomatous. Culms 18-105 cm tall, 2-3 mm thick. Leaves exceeded by the spikes; sheaths glabrous or hairy, often most densely hairy in the collar region; auricles to 1.4 mm; ligules 0.1-0.5 mm; blades 2-6 mm wide, involute, abaxial surfaces scabridulous or smooth, adaxial surfaces scabrous, occasionally with scattered hairs to 1.5 mm, veins unequal, not crowded. Spikes 3-16 cm long, 8-20 mm thick, erect, usually well exserted, with 2-3 spikelets per node; internodes 4-6 mm, hairy throughout, edges with hairs to 2.5 mm. Spikelets 10-18 mm, with 3-7 florets. Glumes often unequal, sometimes absent, 2.5-12 mm long, 0.5-1 mm wide, hairy, stiff, keeled, the central portion thicker than the margins, bases not overlapping, tapering from near the base to the subulate apices, 0-1(3)-veined, veins inconspicuous at mid-length; calluses hairy; lemmas 7-12 mm, usually conspicuously villous or velutinous, occasionally glabrate, hairs 0.7-2.5 mm, awned, awns 2-4 mm; anthers 3.5-10 mm, dehiscent. 2n = 28, 56.

Morphologically, the two subspecies show some overlap. Bowden recognized them in part because of their difference in ploidy level.
