Poa secunda (variously known by the common names of Sandberg bluegrass,^[2]^[3]^[4] alkali bluegrass,^[4] big bluegrass,^[4] Canby's bluegrass,^[2] Nevada bluegrass,^[4] one-sided bluegrass,^[3] Pacific bluegrass,^[2] pine bluegrass,^[2] slender bluegrass,^[2] wild bluegrass,^[4] and curly bluegrass^[1]) is a widespread species of perennial bunchgrass native to North and South America.^[4] It is highly resistant to drought conditions, and provides excellent fodder;^[3] and has also been used in controlling soil erosion,^[4] and as revegetator,^[4] often after forest fires.^[6] Cultivars include 'Canbar', 'Service', 'Sherman', and 'Supernova'.^[7] Historically, indigenous Americans, such as the Gosiute of Utah, have used P. secunda for food.^[8] It was originally described botanically in 1830 by Jan Svatopluk Presl, from a holotype collected from Chile by Thaddäus Haenke in 1790.^[2]

Native distribution

In North America, Poa secunda is native to Canada (in Alberta; British Columbia; eastern Quebec; southern Saskatchewan; southern Yukon Territory; and, rarely, in Ontario), the U.S. (in southeastern Alaska; Arizona; California; Colorado; the Dakotas; Idaho; Isle Royale in Michigan; Montana; northwestern Nebraska; Nevada; New Mexico; Oregon; Utah; Washington; and Wyoming), and northwestern Mexico.^[4]
In South America, it is native to Argentina (found in Chubut; Neuquén; and Santa Cruz), and central Chile.^[4]
