Alaska Brome

Bromus sitchensis

Alaska Brome is a hardy, perennial grass native to western North America. Easily identified by its tall stems and robust, wheat-like heads of tiny seeds, Alaska Brome can reach up to 3 feet in height and can thrive in both wet and dry environments. The steams are covered in short hairs and are green to gray in color. This species is an important food source for various birds and small mammals, making it a good choice for land restoration projects. Even in cold climates, Alaska Brome can make a beautiful addition to a garden, offering unique character and texture to landscapes.
