A genus of grasses found in temperate regions, commonly called wild rye or lyme grass, used for stabilizing soil and providing forage.
From Greek 'elymos,' a type of millet or grain, adopted into modern botanical Latin to name this grass genus in the family Poaceae.
Elymus grass has an amazing superpower—it can grow in extreme environments like coastal dunes and salty soils where other plants give up, which is why it's become crucial for environmental restoration projects.
