Nice! we need more Microlaena seeds for broadcasting after this 3rd round of treating nutrient loving herbs under Native Cheery trees. I think the concept works; I used most Weeping Grass seeds I bought in the past 3 years under the big yellow box trees following 8 seasons of weed removal (thistles cleavers and more); see also https://canberra.naturemapr.org/sightings/4556326.
