These red tussocks were getting blown around by very gusty wind when I visited Orepuki in Southland on 09 January 2021. They look especially soft and fluffy when in flower. New Zealand. Chionochloa rubra subsp. cuprea.

Native flax in the background, also very windblown!

Thank you Ellen! When they’re like this they make me think they’ve just been treated to shampoo and conditioner 😀

Oh takes my breath away. What great photos. I love tussocks and of course Orepuki. I feel really spoilt.
