Summary[edit]

Description Introduced cool-season annual tufted C3 grass; stems are few in number, rigid and to 25 cm tall. Flowerheads are erect spikes 5-16 cm long. Spikelets are 3-7-flowered, about 1.5 mm wide and are embedded in the thick rigid stem; lower glume is absent; upper glume is roughly equal to the spikelet’s length; lemmas are unawned or have a 1-2 mm long awn. Flowers from spring to mid-summer. A native of Europe, it occurs on roadsides, in crops and native and naturalised pastures; usually on sandier soils. A minor weed of crops. Of no grazing value as it is uncommon in pastures and has low productivity.

This image has currency in it to indicate scale.

Using coins for scale is discouraged as it will require people unfamiliar with them to look up the dimensions or guess, both of which defeat the purpose of the object in the first place. Coins can also reinforce a geographical bias, and some coins' designs are copyrighted.

Ideally, a photograph should include a ruler with the subject (example) or an added scale marking. SI ("metric") units are the most commonly used worldwide (see meter and centimeter).
