User's notes
I weed.this area to stop the encroachment of lovegrass and SJW, so this find makes me feel it's all worthwhile. A mix of themeda and bothriochloa. Previously found here before they put the flood drain in behind the houses in 2008, nice to know they have moved back in. Tiny, only a few cm long.
