| Echinopogon
ovatus (hedgehog grass) is a common annual weed that
grows in a range of more-or-less open lowland habitats. The
distinctive feature of this grass is the inflorescence,
which is a dense ovoid panicle with protruding awns
resulting in the relatively soft hedgehog-like appearance.
The spikelets have a single flower. |
