Plant Species – Grasses

This is a page within Roger and Linda's Southwater Downs Web-Site.

Southwater Downs is an 8-acre property on the escarpment 4km east of Robertson, in southern N.S.W. 3 acres are Robertson (lilli pilli) rainforest, and subject to a Conservation Agreement.


Lists of the plant species found on the property have been broken into:

  1. Trees and Shrubs
  2. Vines
  3. (Small) Flowering Plants
  4. Grasses (this page). For convenience (and in breach of the rules of botany!), a number of species are included that are grass-like from the viewpoint of mere conservation-property owners, such as rushes and sedges, and even clovers and plantains. There are two tables:

Here are the References we've used in building up this information.
