User's notes

Prostrate but quite a large leaf stem of about 30cm. Don't know where this stuff has come from. Perhaps from the themeda bale that was put down over weeded areas. We have had lots of new weedy grasses in places where we used the bale. The other possibility is from bird seed from a member of the public feeding birds. The former is more likely.
