Often mistaken for Panicum maximum. It is actually a hybrid Panicum acuminatum also know as Dichanthelium acuminatum, native of California, introduced as a fodder species. I first saw it in Chandigarh in a govt institute, probably introduced by some landscape designer. It is highly invasive. The hairy spikelets easily differentiate it from P.maximum. 
Several species of Dichanthelium are said to hybridise and hence there is a lot of variation too and though there are several species of Dichanthelium reported in America, many authors consider many of them as varieties of D.acuminatum
