The leaves aren't right, but the flower reminds me of smartweed.

I have no idea what type of grass it is.

Havalotta, the picture of the unknown grass, is possibly Panicum virgatum known as switchgrass or even Koeleria macrantha known as Junegrass.

Havalotta, your photo makes me want to track down some Junegrass for our incipient meadow garden. I grow panicum but have never seen anything like the buds in your picture.

It looks like a more "typical" flower than one would find on most grasses--although there are some other very pretty grass head flowers. I also like the shorter grasses, so this seems ideal.

Here are my entries, and they are all native flora to my state. They are Polygonatum biflorum var. commutatum (Giant Solomon's - Seal), Iris primatica (Slender Blueflag Iris), Arisaema dracontium (Green Dragon), which is a relative of Arisaema triphyllum (Jack-in-the-pulpit), Kalmia latifolia (Mountain Laurel).
