Plants perennial, with both fertile and sterile shoots; shortly rhizomatous. Culms 20-80 (100) cm, erect, glabrous or retrorsely pubescent below the nodes. Leaves usually concentrated on the lower 1/3 of the culms; sheaths glabrous or sparsely retrorse-pilose, sometimes scabridulous; ligules (1.2)2.5^1(6) mm, truncate to rounded; blades to 15 cm long, 2-7 mm wide, flat, ascending, lax, smooth or scabrous, sometimes sparsely pilose, often involute near the sometimes prowlike apices. Panicles (10)20-40(50) cm long, usually 1-1.5 cm wide, stiffly erect, green, tan, or purple-tinged; branches appressed-ascending, the spikelets evenly distributed. Spikelets 4-7(8) mm, usually subsessile, rarely on pedicels to 4 mm, ovate, with 2(3) florets; rachilla internodes 1.5-2 mm; rachilla hairs to 1 mm. Glumes subequal, usually longer than the lowest florets; lower glumes 4-7 mm; upper glumes 4-6.5 mm, a little wider than the lower glumes; callus hairs shorter than 0.5 mm; lemmas 4-6.5 mm, lanceolate, firmer than the glumes, scabridulous-puberulent, obscurely bifid, unawned or awned, awns to 2 mm, arising just below and rarely exceeding the apices; paleas shorter than the lemmas; anthers (0.6)1(1.5) mm. Caryopses to 3 mm, pubescent. 2n = 14.
