wild grasses
Untamed field plants
Wild grasses are grasses that grow naturally without cultivation—the uncultivated counterparts to lawn grass, wheat, or other domesticated species.
The phrase often evokes prairies, meadows, or neglected fields: Wild grasses swayed in the wind.
In landscaping, wild grasses may be deliberately planted to create a naturalistic look or support native ecosystems.
