Summary

[edit]
Description Introduced, warm-season, annual or short-lived perennial, loosely tufted and hairy grass to 1.2 m tall. Stems often root at the lower nodes. Ligule are ciliate rims with hairs to 2 mm long. Leaves are hairless or have tubercle-based hairs to 1 mm long (especially along basal margins). Flowerheads are white, pink or red open panicles 7-17 cm long. Spikelets are 3-5 mm long, 2-flowered, unawned or with 2 short awns and covered in silky, shiny red, pink or white hairs. Flowers in summer. A native of Africa, it was possibly introduced as a pasture species, but is now mostly only naturalised on roadsides and in wastelands. Rarely occurs in paddocks, except if badly degraded and little grazed.
