Crested Dogstail Seeds

Description

Crested dogstail is a compact tufted perennial grass. It is a comparatively low grass with a leafy base of flat smooth leaves that fill out at the bottom of a mixed grass sward. Its flowers and seed heads are born up higher (up to 50-75cm) on thin wiry stems which resist grazing so can be found persisting right through to seeding even in short heavily grazed pasture. The heads themselves are quite distinctive, compact and regular in shape.
