Grass Family
Gramineae
The Grass Family is an incredibly large family and contains almost all grains and grasses. The most common garden vegetable found in the is family are Zea mays (corn) and Sorghum bicolor. Corn is particularly tricky to save since it relays on the wind for pollination, causing cross-pollination between varieties to happen very easily. The pollen can travel for miles before landing on one of the hairs on the new ear of corn.
