Does not have the long, distinctive awns of other Elymus species.

Native Range: Native to the West, the Great Lakes and the Northeast.

Wildlife Uses: Elk and Bighorn Sheep enjoy grazing on Slender Wheat Grass. It is palatable and nutritious for both wildlife and livestock. Sometimes used in hay in combination with other grasses.
