Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture
Gynerium (Greek, gune, woman, and erion, wool). Gramineae. Very large perennial grasses with broad, sword-like blades and plume-like dioecious inflorescence. Spikelets 2-fld., the florets equal, the rachilla not produced beyond the upper floret; glumes of staminate spikelets equal, of the pistillate spikelets unequal, the upper twice as long as the lower; culms perennial, with extensively creeping rhizomes, the plants growing gregariously in large masses or areas in their native habitat: lvs. rather evenly distributed along the sts., the sheaths about equal, the blades as much as 3 in. wide.—One species in Trop. Amer. Cortaderia of Stapf differs in the 3-6-fld. spikelets, the upper florets more or less reduced, in the equal glumes in both sexes, in the biennial culms with only very short rhizomes, the plants thus growing in large tussocks; in the lvs., scarcely ½ in. wide, being crowded at the base of the plant, the sheaths increasing in length from base upward. The djfference in appearance between the staminate and pistillate plumes is much more marked in Gynerium than in Cortaderia. The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
