Indian bluegrass

Scientific name	Bothriochloa pertusa
Characteristics	Indian bluegrass or Indian couch grass grows best in a warm climate and has become naturalised in central and drier areas of northern Queensland. It is a very drought hardy plant growing within an annual rainfall range of 500-900 mm. It is suited to well-drained loam and clay soils, but will also grow better than most other grasses on difficult to manage, forest soils.
