A plant (particularly a type of grass or couch grass) with angular or sharply bent stems, or the twitching motion associated with such plants in wind.
Compound of 'angle' and 'twitch,' where 'twitch' may derive from Old English 'twiccian,' meaning to pull sharply. Botanical term for a plant's distinctive growth pattern or movement.
Some grasses like 'twitch' grass have perfectly angled joints that allow them to spread vegetatively—each segment can root independently, making them super successful (but also sometimes invasive weeds).
