Bromus madritensis
Spanish brome is a hardy annual or short-lived perennial grass that grows readily in poor, well-drained soils with minimal intervention. It tolerates partial shade and moderate drought, making it a low-maintenance choice for naturalistic or wildflower meadow settings. Little supplemental watering or feeding is needed once the plant is established.
