A type of thin, delicate grass with fine, hair-like blades that grows in poor soil and dry conditions.
From Old English 'hær' (hair) + 'græs' (grass). The name describes the grass's fine, thread-like appearance that resembles human hair strands.
Hairgrass is a champion of harsh environments—it thrives in rocky, nutrient-poor soil where almost nothing else will grow, and it's been used to help restore degraded landscapes because it's so tough and needs so little to survive.
