''Brachypodium sylvaticum'', commonly known as false brome, slender false brome or wood false brome, is a perennial grass native to Europe, Asia and Africa. It has a broad native range stretching from North Africa to Eurasia.〔Hitchcock et al. 1969〕 The bunchgrass is most commonly found in forests and woodlands, preferring the shaded canopy, but may grow in open areas. It prefers well drained neutral and calcerous soils, and avoids wet conditions. ==Description== ''Brachypodium sylvaticum'' is a tall tufted perennial bunchgrass that grows up to about a high. The drooping leaf blade of the plant is dark green, or bright-yellow green, flat and up to 12 mm wide with a fringe of hairs surrounding the edge of the leaf. The leaves do not have auricles. The leaf blade is joined to the hollow culm by the leaf sheath. This hairy sheath is open and surrounds the culm. The culm is pilose (long, soft, hairy), and typically has 4 to 5 nodes. The ligules are blunt, long. The grass has drooping narrow long spikelets of flowers on very short pedicels. The flower head is long, the plant flowering in July and August. Its awns are straight and long, projecting out of the end of the spikelets. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Brachypodium sylvaticum」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
