See if you can find any seed heads on it. The seeds are fairly distinctive. The small gasses in the background look suspicious.

It also looks a bit like a red anther speargrass I've grown from purchased seed at home.

Not sure. Serrated tussock tends to be a bit floppier. This appears somewhat stiff.

Thanks Mike and yes, I just realized by checking Field Maps Treated Weeds records that contractors and Parks staff treated ST close by on the 24 and 26 February 2025; so it is likely they missed this lot.

PCS has also done recent mapping of serrated tussock in the area so, fingers crossed, there might be some action next treatment season. :-)
