Virginia Wild Rye (Elymus virginicus) Looking for a native ornamental grass that will be good for pollinators and birds? This Virginia Wild Rye is a good choice. The grass is lush and green and grows erect. The rye seed stalks, or "ears," are not only great for birds, they are also useful for fall decorations. Found in open woods, thickets, and tall grasslands, sometimes spreading into old fields and roadsides.
