Summary

[edit]
Description Introduced, warm season, perennial, densely tufted grass to 90 cm tall. Leaves have a ligule with a ciliate rim; blades are green, to 3.5 mm wide and scabrous on the upper surface and margins. Panicles are spike-like, moderately dense, conspicuously plumose and 10–25 cm long. Spikelets are solitary or in clusters of 2 or 3 and 4.5–6.5 mm long. Bristles in each involucre, loosely plumose and unequal (mostly to 26 mm long but 1 usually to 40 mm long). Lower glume is a hyaline scale or suppressed; the upper is to 5 mm long. Lower lemma is sterile or rarely male; palea is suppressed or nearly as long as the lemma. Upper lemma is bisexual or male and as long as the spikelet; it has a mucro to 1 mm long. Flowering is in spring and summer. Cultivated as an ornamental, and occasionally escapes from cultivation. A class 5 noxious weed in NSW.
