The hairs on the column of the awn appear quite long for this plant. I wonder if this is potentially Austrostipa mollis. @Grassman any thoughts?

Hi Matt. This plant I have growing in my garden. Click on the timeline icon at the top of the page and look at other photos of the same plant: Austrostipa densiflora (Foxtail Speargrass)
I don't think there is any doubt about it being Austrostipa densiflora.
