What is the grass and is it native to the PNW?

Very nice execution. I really love the grass that softens the lines and the blend of the corten and concrete.
Can you tell me the name of that grass and if it's native to the Seattle area?
thanks

    Thanks Alyssa!

    The grass is Mexican Feather Grass (Nassella or Stipa tenuissima) and no, it is not native here. In fact it is considered invasive in California and warmer climates. It does self-sow here as well but it is a matter of sometimes pulling up a handful of seedlings, not hundreds. Still, something to consider.

    Another great alternative is Bouteloua gracilis 'Blonde Ambition'.

    Do you happen to know the name of the company/contractor who installed the custom water feature? Thank you!
