Coast Range Melic

Melica imperfecta

Coast Range Melic (Melica imperfecta) is a perennial grass native to Western US states (such as California) that can thrive in USDA Zones 7–10. Reaching a mature height of 1–3 feet with a slender, tufted upright growth habit, it features narrow green leaf blades and produces narrow, open seed panicles with purplish spikelets. It thrives in dry, rocky chaparral slopes, oak woodlands, and canyon walls and is ideal for dryland slope erosion control, woodland restoration, and watershed cover.
