[MAIPC] grass i.d.?

[Bergmann, Carole]

It’s a species of Setaria = “foxtail grass”. There are many different Setarias.
I’d like to see it closer but this looks like giant foxtail. = http://www.illinoiswildflowers.info/grasses/plants/giant_foxtail.htm

Hello All:

Can you help me identify this grass? I am attaching photos, taken last month. The plant is about 3-4' high, growing on a partly shady, disturbed slope in Montgomery County, MD.

Many thanks for your help.
