romantic grass of the week: Aristida vagans - a grass you could find in Sydney Ironbark Turpentine Forest. i love grasses with awns, not only are they pretty but they assist seed burial. i thought kangaroo grass was the only one then i found heaps at the kuring-gai nursery.. so Aristida vagans (also Aristida warburgii) is three awn spear grass, an erect tufted 80cm grass, open angular flower. longevity 2-25 years. Thanks to Macleay Grass Man for the photos
