Poa alpina, commonly known as Alpine Meadow-grass, is a species of meadow grass.
It is noted for being viviparous: Its seeds are evolved to germinate while still connected to the parent plant, in order to give them a safe head start[1].
The second track on Norwegian ambient noise "musician" Biosphere's album Substrata is called Poa Alpina.
