Cortaderia
''Cortaderia'' is a genus of South American and Central American plants in the Poaceae grass family. Etymology The common name pampas grass, though strictly referring to ''C. selloana'', is frequently applied to all species in the genus (and sometimes also to species of '' Erianthus'' and ''Saccharum ravennae''). The name of the genus is derived from the Argentine Spanish word ''cortadera'', which in turn refers to the sharp serrations on the leaves. ''Cortaderia jubata'' and '' C. rudiuscula'' produce copious seed asexually. Description The species of ''Cortaderia'' are imposing tall grasses growing 1.5–3 m tall, with graceful white inflorescence plumes. They are in widespread use as ornamental plants. ; Species * ''Cortaderia araucana'' Stapf - Chile, Argentina * ''Cortaderia atacamensis'' (Phil.)

Many of the soft-leaved members of this species were formerly included in the genus ''Plectrachne''. It is known as ''tjanpi'' in central Australia, and is used for basket weaving by the women of various Aboriginal Australian peoples. A multiaccess key (SpiKey) is available as a free application for identifying the ''Triodia'' of the Pilbara (28 species and one hybrid). Description ''Triodia'' is a perennial Australian tussock grass that grows in arid regions. Its leaves (30–40 centimetres long) are subulate ( awl-shaped, with a tapering point). The leaf tips, that are high in silica, can break off in the skin, leading to infections. Uses Spinifex has traditionally had many uses for Aboriginal Australians. The seeds were collected and ground to make seedcakes. Spinifex resin was ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
