Book Synopsis Natural and Cultural History of Beargrass (Xerophyllum Tenax) by : Susan Hummel
Book excerpt: Beargrass is a source of food, habitat, and raw material for animals, pollinating insects and people across its range in the Western United States. The plant has long been used by Native Americans, who harvest the leaves for basketry and other crafts. More recently, beargrass has become an important component of international trade for the commercial floral greens industry.
