Searched for purple or red pennisetum, found one, Pennisetum setaceum (Forssk.) Chiov. is it?

Also check Pennisetum pedicellatum.


This is Pennisetum pedicellatum, the spikelets match perfectly. The spikelets of Pennisetum setaceum are different.
Thank you very much.

Plz id this grass: pa72 – 28dec2012:
Plz id this grass seen flowering in Mankhurd region. It is around 6 foot in height.


looks like Pennisetum orientale


Pennisetum pedicellatumPl. open the bristles to reveal the spikelets. If one of the spikelets is pedicelled, then it is this species. If no spikelets are pedicelled, it could be P.polystachyon. P.polystachon has a yellowish inflorescence later on turning straw or brown, whereas P.pedicellatum has inflorescence in shades of pink turning brown. This one looks more like P.pedicellatum. However, confirm whether any pedicelled spikelets are hidden inside the bristles.


Thank you … for the detailed answer. It is bit difficult for me because i am not a botanist. I am attaching one more close-up photo that i have got. Can you plz look at it and give your comments if
posible. Thanks again.

Poaceae
¿ Pennisetum ?
Place, Altitude: Sangameshwar, Konkan, Maharashtra … about 40 ft asl
Date, Time: 20 DEC 08 … 04:51pm
Habitat: scrub vegetation
Habit: herb; perhaps 1 m (cannot recollect height)

To my eyes, the inflorescence resembles Pennisetum (may not be this genus at all), the length of inflorescence however seems relatively less compared to that of Pennisetum setaceum.

Pennisetum pedicellatum. Confirm by opening up the bristles to see if any of the spikelets inside are pedicelled. I have also seen this type of habit (growing in large showy clumps) of Pennisetum pedicellatum in Central India (Pachmarhi plateau), whereas in Kerala, the habit is more or less spreading in nature instead of clumps.

It does look like Pennisetum purpureum Schumach.


The decurrent wings on the rachis suggests that it is Pennisetum pedicellatum. There are two ways to confirm. Just take out one spikelet and press the lower part of the spikelet. If you see the upper floret disarticulating and throwing up, it is P.pedicellatum. Reconfirm by opening up the bristles to see whether any of the spikelets inside are pedicelled. Pl. send feedback after this experiment.


I am very happy to read you again after a long pause. This grass is from Assam, by … Thank you very much for taking care of this post. I agreed because of long awn on spikelets and long bristle at leaf base. But, now after reading this mail, spikelets seem to be more like P. pedicellatum than of P. purpureum. “Rachis” characteristic is too hard !
Thank you again for correcting me.

My pleasure …!. Just one correction that the spikelets of pennisetum are not ‘awned’ at all. All the structures you see around the spikelet are just bristles covering a group of spikelets. None of the Paniceae tribe have awns.


Thank you very much for correcting me again. I understand i have very vague idea over internal structure of plant anatomy. I wonder how botanists dissect small to tiny parts of a spikelet to get an inside view! I thought all hair like growth on spikelets are awn!

24032011 Pj 5 Id confirmation:
Pl find attached penisetum setosum, Id conformation requested.


Kindly mention habitat. P. setosum is usually cultivated, taller with longer and thicker spikes.


Its on the bank of a pond in kaiga & water lasts throughout the year.Sorry for the late reply.


Please also check with P. orientalis??


yes its Pennisetum orientalis, check description in cooke’s flora


The picture (grass) looks like P. purpureum – a common fodder grass often found as a field escape.
But confirmation is a must by disecting the spikelets. However, I am sure that was not P. orientalis which is usually grown as a ornamental garden grass.


Pennisetum pedicellatum Trin.


i also go with … pennisetum pedicellatum


i still go with P. orientale and not Pennisetum purpureum which is quite tall grass


I agree with … that it can’t be P. purpureum which is a much taller grass with much broader leaves and dense inflorescence.

http://www.flowersinisrael.com/Pennisetumpurpureum
http://www.flowersinisrael.com/Flowgallery/Pennisetum_purpureum

It is also not P. setaceum a South African grass with dense spike and stiffer short bristles, often cultivated in gardens.
http://www.californiagardens.pennisetum_setaceum_rubrum.htm
Pennisetum pedicellatum and P. orientale are closely similar but the spikelets in P. orientale are much separated, rachis hairy and bristles much longer and plumose.
I am also attaching my photograph of P. orientale from Kashmir and P. setaceum from California for comparison
The more denser arrangement of spikelets and shorter bristles suggests P. pedicellatum for above plant as indicated by …, out expert on grasses.
