Aristida Junciformis

Heigras, Congoni Grass, Gongoni Three-Awn, Ngongoni Bristle Grass, Wire Grass

Heigras, while not a favourite grass with farmers because it is almost inedible to animals and encroaches upon areas that have been overgrazed, Aristida Junciformis is coveted by gardeners that adore grasses.

It is a very ornamental grass and, more importantly, a grass that will grow and look good in virtually any type of soil, and it covers high banks with ease.
