Photograph of a Galleta plant. The back of the photograph proclaims, "Galleta (Hilaria Jamesii) – Sometimes and unfortunately referred to in older literature as black grama, is an erect perennial. It grows on mesas, plains, and deserts from Wyoming and Nevada to California, Western Texas, and South in Mexico, but is probably most common in New Mexico and Arizona. The abundance of Galleta and its capacity for heavy forage production make it a very important species on many southwestern ranges. It is of highest palatability (up to good or very good) during the summer rainy growing season, and has the reputation among stockmen of being nutritious for all classes of livestock. The tough, woody rootstocks, sometimes as much as 6 feet long, are it surest means of reproduction, fortify it against trampling and heavy grazing, and increase its effectiveness as a soil binder."
