I think this is Natal grass (Melinis repens). It’s native to southern Africa and is considered something of a weed in many other places, including here. It still looked beautiful on this early morning.

It is a lovely picture. Your comment about how the picture didn’t capture how the pink glowed in the sun, made me think of the aspens in Colorado.

The morning or afternoon light shows Natal Grass so well Graham. It’s a pest weed here as well

Isn’t it sneaky how many invasive species are quite attractive?

It certainly is a beautiful grass, just sorry to hear that it has become invasive where it has been introduced.

The Natal grass sure makes a beautiful backdrop, Graham. Is it pink or is that the morning light? Good reminder that flowering grasses are a great addition to Flower Hour!

They’re pink but it was catching the morning light beautifully too.

That must be a sight! Reminds me of the Kiahwah sweet grass Tina shares on her blog.
