Hello,
I would appreciate your help in identifying a few plants that are currently growing on my property in Pueblo West, CO. The first is a clump grass with purple/burgundy tips. The second is a yellow flower, and the last I understand is some type of artemisia.
Thanks so much!

Hi-
I believe the grass is Red Three Awn (Aristida purpurea)
The flower is Lavender-leaf sundrop (Calylophus lavandulifolius)
And the last one looks to be an Artemesia, maybe Prairie Sage (Artemisia ludoviciana)
