Pie. Tea. Frazzles. Plants. Perfect lunch stop below Glas Maol/Meall Odhar, NE Scotland. I was keeping an eye on several specimens of the beautiful Alpine Foxtail Alopecurus magellanicus. @bsbibotany.bsky.social @bsbiscotland.bsky.social

The face of someone who just pulled every muscle in his body lugging himself up a very big hill to find a grass...

Mind you, that grass was Alpine Foxtail (Alopecurus magellanicus) 😍 @bsbibotany.bsky.social

Early August 2025 and two very cool montane grasses on the slopes below Glas Maol, in the Aberdeenshire/Angus borderlands. Alpine Foxtail Alopecurus magellanicus and Alpine Cat's-tail Phleum alpinum. I had a very pleasant day in their company. @bsbibotany.bsky.social

If you know, you know… Bend the inflorescence of Orange Foxtail (Alopecurus aequalis) over and check that there really are no awns.

A really nice thing to find in the drawdown zone of a pond.

Pratensis: refers to plants typically found in meadows or pastures.
From the Latin ‘pratum’ meaning meadow.
Examples Meadow Foxtail (Alopecurus pratensis), Cuckooflower (Cardamine pratensis), Meadow Vetchling (Lathyrus pratensis) and Red Clover (Trifolium pratense).

GRASSES HAVE FLOWERS TOO!! Have you really ever looked close at a grass? You might notice they have beautiful but small flowers with what you normally expect from angiosperms like anthers, stigmas and ovaries! Check out this beautiful Alopecurus saccatus (Pacific Foxtail)

The second of the rare montane grasses below Glas Maol in August was Alpine Foxtail Alopecurus magellanicus. Beautiful grass in a beautiful setting. @bsbibotany.bsky.social @bsbiscotland.bsky.social #botany

Lovely time botanising in the #Cairngorms finding Alpine Speedwell (Veronica alpina), Alpine Cat's-tail (Phleum alpinum), Alpine Foxtail (Alopecurus magellanicus), & a new record of Scottish Pearlwort (Sagina x normaniana) last recorded at this site 24 years ago!

It's been a few years since we've sold Alopecurus pratensis 'Aureovariegatus' but this lot of divisions should soon make nice plants.

Welcome to @norfolknats.bsky.social
Here are photos of Orange Foxtail, Alopecurus aequalis, to the left and Marsh Foxtail, Alopecurus geniculatus, to the right, beside a pingo during an enjoyable meeting at a #Norfolk farm in August. Thanks of course to their id skills!

Meadow Foxtail, Alopecurus pratensis. Up to 120cm. Hairless. Leaves up to 10mm wide. Ligules up to 2.5mm. Inflorescence cigar-shaped up to 13cm, purplish or green. Awns project 3-5mm from spikelet.
Books often show inflorescence at one stage so thought these might be helpful
