Diarrhena obovata (Beak Grass)

Often forming colonies of dense clumps, the tall stems of beak grass have relatively broad, shiny leaves with a prominent off-set mid-vein. The inflorescence consists of a long, drooping, terminal panicle with well-spaced, very short, beaked spikelets which expand to become shiny and egg-shaped as they mature.
