Its really great you found the wild oats. This is a cool sighting.
Haha pyoung ,now that is a thought! Maybe Cindy can enlighten us on that!
Im guessing we could make oat meal from this? :)
I like the name " Slender Oats " too. It was identified by Cindy!
This is very nice!! It looks so artistic! Good spotting, too!
My phone app showed this was unknown so that's why I commented. Since I got this correct, perhaps I'm getting better at plants :-)
@ Cindy some of the names for this plant are: Slim Oat, slender oat, slender wild oats
Hi Emma, I believe this is slim oat but I'm not by a computer to verify. The best sight for this would be Calflora. Good luck!
