Does anyone know what type of grass, or weed this is?

Hoping is it’s a grass that can be replanted; it has a cool look.

It would help people to ID if you can reply with a flower pic (yes, grasses have flowers) and a state, or at least a region. :)
If no one can ID, you can also post it to inaturalist.

Ah! I though putting the growing zone in the post title might be the same as including the region. I’m in the midwest near Chicago in zone 5/6.

It has not flowered yet so maybe I’ll post again when that happens.

Zones are helpful, but region will help a lot more, and also hopefully call in plant people from the area.
Sadly, not my region. ;-)
