Blepharoneuron tricholepis, known as Pine Dropseed or Mountain Mist Grass, is a perennial bunchgrass native to western North America, often found in ponderosa pine forests and mountain meadows. It forms dense tufts of fine, green leaves and produces delicate, open panicles in summer. This grass is valued for erosion control, wildlife habitat, and naturalistic landscaping. It thrives in full sun to light shade and well-drained soils, exhibiting good drought tolerance once established.
