Poa alpina, commonly known as alpine meadow-grass[1] or alpine bluegrass,[2][3] is a species of grass with a primarily holarctic distribution.[4]
It is noted for being pseudoviviparous: in place of seeds, it sometimes reproduces asexually, creating new plantlets in the spikelets.[5]
In Montana, USA
