Sheathed seeds of Windmill Grass (Chloris truncata).
Nursery, Playford Operations Centre, Davoren Park, City of Playford, South Australia.
Native, warm-season annual or short-lived perennial, erect, hairless, tufted C4 grass usually less than 50 cm tall and forming a dense low crown; sometimes short stolons are present. Stems are unbranched and flattened with a knee-like bend near their base. Flowerheads are digitate, usually with 6-9 branches 4-20 cm long. Mostly found along roadsides and in native pastures where groundcover and fertility are relatively low; rarely abundant. Readily colonises bare ground and areas subject to compaction or shallow soils. Native biodiversity. Of little significance for grazing, it has low to moderate quality and low productivity. Tolerant of set stocking and close grazing, it is better suited to sheep than cattle due to the low height of its foliage. Favoured by grazing systems that maintain low groundcover. It has little response to fertiliser inputs.

My Schlumbergera truncata bloomed profusely from mid-December 2022 until mid-January 2023. Usually that would be it until next year, but "she" surprised me with a second eruption of buds and is now flowering again! It is delightful to have the added flowering period since this month has been so cloudy and cold.
The end of the Cladodes split open from which the buds emerge.
