This winter, I planted Eastern gamagrass down in a riparian area near a creek to help with bank stabilization. Never grown it before. That grass came up successfully, and then was killed to the ground by a very unseasonable freeze. Lots of grass resprouted in that bed. Much of it is two feet tall or higher. Some, I am suspecting, is just switchgrass. But what I am suspecting is gamagrass has seed heads that look pretty unique. Tightly clustered in a cob-like arrangement. The other grass has a bold white streak down the middle of each leaf. This stuff does not. See below. Is this, in fact, gamagrass?
