Notes:
This is another annual weed grass and is common throughout the country. Although it is conspicous in the pastures in which it occurs it cannot be regarded as a serious pest, as it usually thrives under condition where better grasses will also thrive, It requires high fertility and an open sward before it can thrive.
Specimen notes
Supplementary remarks:
This specimen is part of a collection given to the Allan Herbarium by Laurence Smith (Amberly office, Environment Canterbury). This was given to L. Smith in the early 1990's by someone in Port Robinson, Cheviot.
The collection is believed to have been collected in 1948, based on several specimens with fully written dates in the collection. We believe that JRK was a student of Canterbury Agriculture College (C.A.C), which is now known as Lincoln University.
