User's notes
A 2-square-metre patch of small plants, probably had been mown in last mowing cycle. Just a couple have now grown and flowered. The ground under the plants is a mass of dry seed, looking like someone has tipped a bag of millet seed onto ground here, in places 1 cm deep - see final image. 2 years ago a sighting of single tall mature plant 3m from here was posted to CNM and it looks like the same species. Is there some local working to create a field of this grass beside this carpark? Very strange!
