cheatgrass

Rfv-sense: "A local name for various types of grasses which resemble, but are different from, the predominant species growing in that locality."

There is a species for which this is a vernacular name. Is this some kind of plausible invention or a real term? The Pynchon cite attests to the existence of the term but not any specific definition. DCDuring TALK 13:46, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

• RFV failed: no quotations provided. As an auxi check, online dicts do not have this sense. --Dan Polansky (talk) 19:14, 21 August 2013 (UTC)
