Thanks Michael. I was asked to identify some weeds in a 'repaired' area and this was one I didn't know. You identified it before I had a chance to look at my book on grasses. I will load photos of the other weeds to record what happens with landscaping soil and fill. The ACT need to tighten biosecurity rules.
