Wild Grasses of Ainsworth: Quack Grass
(Click on image to enlarge)
Speaking of wheat, Lauren Brown says that "perhaps Wheat as we know it developed from a natural hybrid with a species" of this family of grasses.
Fairly low-growing, with a flat inflorescence that hugs the stem. Also known as Witch Grass and Couch Grass; this specimen found growing along Ainsworth Road.
