Plant 130 cm tall. Anthers 1.5 mm. Awn originates approximately 1 mm below tip of lemma teeth. Leaf sheath mostly closed (margins fused). Habitat road ditch at edge of thickets and young forest, on clay soil, probably with plenty of water available.

This is the form Henry Hemphill referred to as ‘kelseyi’. Unlike typical flat Haplotrema minimum this form has a more conical high spire and is less broadly spread. I’ve found them near Glass Beach and also near the mouth of Pudding Creek in Mendocino County.

Coastal sand dunes, grass-shrub habitat.
