Is there a botanist in the house?
Or even someone with just a really green thumb?
In October I attended an ocean side wedding in Gulf Shores, Alabama. [I had the pleasure of meeting Kasey while passing through and got the 10 cent tour of her gun selling operation.]
There was some sort of "grass" [thanks to a reply below I know it's sea oats] on the beach that was very prolific and had seeds on the end of a relatively firm stalk 4 to 5 feet high. I saved about a cup of seeds and brought them home to Indiana. I hope to present the couple with some of this grass growing in a 5 gallon bucket for their 6 month anniversary in April.
It occurs to me now that I should have got a bucket of sand there where the plant is native. Anyway, is there any hope the plant will thrive near the 38th parallel?

probably sea oats and i doubt they will survive very well north of I-10. you really dont want to get caught moving flora, fauna, or sand from its "normal habitat".

Against the law, for real and it will not. Don't ask me.

So apparently I can't go back to Alabama for seven years.

In Florida Sea Oats are protected by law (and they are serious about it).
No they won't grow where you are.
