Any of a group of grasses. Creeping bent grass (Agrostis stolonifera), also known as fiorin, is common in northern North America, Europe, and Asia, including lowland Britain. It spreads by runners and has large attractive clusters (panicles) of yellow or purple flowers on thin stalks, like oats. It is often used on lawns and golf courses.
