Given that kangaroo grass ripens at the same time that many spiders are building their webs, may suggest that this is a means for the plant to extend its seeding time. Themeda triandra.

Description: English: Glass House Mountains National Park is a heritage-listed national park at Glass House Mountains, Sunshine Coast Region, Queensland. It is 70 km (43 mi) north of Brisbane and consists of a flat plain punctuated by rhyolite and trachyte volcanic plugs, the cores of extinct volcanoes that formed 27 million to 26 million years ago. The mountains would once have had pyroclastic exteriors, but these have eroded away. The national park was established in 1994. On 23 June 2010 the Queensland Government announced the expansion of the park to include an additional 2,117 hectares (5,230 acres). It was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 3 May 2007.

Description: Kangaroo Grass growing on the western roadside of Princes Highway, directly opposite the Durras Rd turnoff at Benandarah (8km north east of Batemans Bay), NSW, 2536. Soil was an exposed bedrock of yellow decomposing rock. Site was a nearly pure stand of Themeda triandra with more than 100 plants. Grasses were erect, 115 cm tall and pulled up easily. Tubercle-based hairs on each glume were relatively few in number. Date: 18 December 2010, 10:20. Source: Themeda triandra with tubercle-hairs24. Author: Harry Rose from South West Rocks, Australia.

Description: When travelling down the south coast of NSW, I noticed Kangaroo Grass which had tubercle-based hairs in the flowerhead. This doesn't occur in any samples I've looked at on the north coast of NSW. This patch was growing on a graded roadside on George Bass Drive, 200m south of final roundabout exiting the southern end of Malua Bay. The site had a northwest facing gentle slope and was dominated by this tubercle-haired form of the grass, with little else present up to the edge of the forest (on the other side of the fence). Soil was a gravelly pale clay (probably subsoil). The grass was erect, 70cm tall and pulled up easily. Tubercle-based hairs were abundant. Date: 16 December 2010, 13:43.

Description: Native, warm-season, perennial, tufted grass to 120 cm tall. Flowerheads are spatheate panicles. Flowers from spring to autumn. Most commonly found in ungrazed to lightly grazed areas that have not been ploughed, but have occasionally been burnt (e.g. roadsides, railways, native pastures, woodlands and forests). This shot was taken on a seaside headland at South West Rocks and shows the typical very low growing habit of plants in this situation. Native biodiversity. An important habitat for many native animals. Drought tolerant. Frost sensitive, but one of the earliest warm-season native perennials to break dormancy in spring. Palatability and feed quality are low when mature, although young growth is palatable to stock. Shows little response to fertiliser. Decreases under moderate to heavy grazing pressure. Use cattle, rotational grazing, low stocking rates, avoid frequent close grazing and/or rest in autumn for best persistence and production. Date: 29 May 2014, 10:28.

Description: Flowerheads are spatheate panicles, containing clusters of 7 spikelets enclosed by a spathe. Clusters consist of a central fertile spikelet with a long thick (0.4-0.5 mm wide) black awn, surrounded by 6 male or barren, awnless spikelets; 4 are unstalked (6-12 mm long) and 2 stalked. The upper half of the glumes of the unstalked spikelets vary from hairless (mostly northern and western NSW) to densely covered with glandular hairs (most common in south east NSW).

Description: Kangaroo Grass growing on a steep graded roadside cutting on the south-eastern side of the Princess Highway about 500m south of the Bermagui turnoff at Cobargo, NSW, 2550. Soil was a loose yellow-brown rotten rock bedrock. Site was dominated by Themeda triandra which lacked tubercle-based hairs, mixed with less than 20 plants that had a few tubercle-based hairs on each glume. Some Trifolium arvense present. Grasses were erect, 100 cm tall, had grey-green leaves and pulled up easily. Date: 17 December 2010, 16:02. Source: Themeda triandra with tubercle-hairs22.
