Nassella tenuissima, or otherwise known as Pony Tails, is native to many hot and arid regions in North and South America. Despite its prevalence throughout those two continents, it is considered an incredibly invasive species in Australia and would cause an ecological disaster if introduced to the country. Even seeds and cuttings of the plant are entirely forbidden and there was an incident in 2009 where the seeds made it into the country because Nassella tenuissima was accidentally mislabeled as Stipa lessingiana.
The genus Stipa underwent a taxonomical restructuring and Pony Tails is more correctly known as Nassella.
