A different kind of reed... Very common in the wider area. Strange that I couldn't find it's id on local flora papers. Anyone have an idea? Grows up to over 3m. dithyramb attached the following image(s): IMG_20220928_180534.jpg (4,324kb) downloaded 192 time(s). IMG_20220928_180604.jpg (4,675kb) downloaded 193 time(s).

I seen this species as an ornamental in roundabouts in my hometown city. Not a reed for sure.

It's wild and extremely common over here. I think the ornamental species you mention might be Cortaderia selloana. This is not that.

The sidewalk growing city Phalaris early bloomers have arrived here. What is it? It should be minor. (I shamefully admit that I never learned how to distinguish Phalaris aquatica and minor.) My first ever Phalaris bioassay was with such a grass growing in a sidewalk and it was definitely DMT active. dithyramb attached the following image(s): 20230313_133850.jpg (2,532kb) downloaded 148 time(s). 20230313_133904.jpg (2,709kb) downloaded 149 time(s).The consciousness of plants is a constant source of information for medicine, alimentation, and art, and an example of the intelligence and creative imagination of nature.

It can't be aquatica if dosen't grow new shoots from underneath the soil right next to the original seedling. Can't be minor if it produces red sap when cutting the blades or stems either.. patterns on that panicle isn't anything like aquatica also...they are narrow patterns more lengthy than wide.. and they never change

None of them looks like it to me. Merging this thread to the Phalaris ID thread. “There is a way of manipulating matter and energy so as to produce what modern scientists call 'a field of force'. The field acts on the observer and puts him in a privileged position vis-à-vis the universe. From this position he has access to the realities which are ordinarily hidden from us by time and space, matter and energy. This is what we call the Great Work." ― Jacques Bergier, quoting Fulcanelli

Aquatica? Apologies for the photos, it was a very bright day. Growing by the river. Zone 5 NE USA. Nichrome attached the following image(s): phaq2.jpg (438kb) downloaded 107 time(s). phaq1.jpg (831kb) downloaded 109 time(s). phaq3.jpg (768kb) downloaded 109 time(s).

Looks like aquatica but can't be 100% low resolution.
Edit: it's actually an aquatica I'm sure. There was too much light outside now I we it clear. I could tell by the stripes on the panicles and panicle shape

Ok great thank you. I see a lot of this around here. There are lots of different areas and lots of different phenotypes. I'll try to get some good pictures this year. I am just getting to know this species. I appreciate the help with this one as I was unsure.
This bunch is really skinny and tall compared to the others I've seen nearby which are typically shorter with less space between the nodes, and thicker, more robust, and almost bluish/glaucus leaf like how a healthy trichocereus cacti can often look.

Aquatica can change change colour from Dee blueish green to pale green depending on the time of season. Usually the darker blueish green is at the peak of the vegetative growth when the plant has plenty of energy reserves.
The more you harvest it the paler the green gets.

Dactylis glomerata had me fooled once too, hence I can recognise it if not necesarily remember its name correctly  There's a thread about Holcus lanatus and that's why the name was stuck in my head. “There is a way of manipulating matter and energy so as to produce what modern scientists call 'a field of force'.

Phalaris Aquatica (dried) and its spikelets (top) and Anthoxanthum odoratum (bottom). Not entirely sure though, feedback welcome. The Phalaris aquatica rhizomes should look something like the photo attached, which I will check tomorrow. Edit: After having a look at the whole plant, Top photo is actually Holcus lanatus due to soft leaves and stem. *sigh*.
