Perennial ryegrass is a turfgrass with a spike-type seed head. In the raceme type, spikelets are borne on very short branches along a main stem. True raceme seed heads are rare in grasses and none of the cool-season turfgrasses produce them. Crabgrass, a common annual grass weed, has a modified spike-like raceme.
Strawflowers add color to arrangements of dried pods and seed heads. Annual strawflower plants (Bracteantha bracteatum, formerly Helichrysum bracteatum) have papery blossoms that retain their color when dried. They are easy to grow, harvest and propagate. Low-growing perennial types of strawflowers were recently categorized in their own genus, Xerochrysum bracteatum. Also known as everlastings, the many species of both annual and perennial strawflowers bloom in a range of colors and sizes.
