Echinochloa crus-galli is a 0.8-1m annual herb that
grows everywhere, including roadsides, grasslands, fields, paddies,
and ditch edges. Stems grow in clumps and branch at the bases.
Leaves are 30-50cm long, 1-2cm wide, linear in shape, and have a
sandy feel. Leaf-sheaths at the base are somewhat red and completely
lack ligules. Inflorescences measure 10-25cm long and emerge with
many short branches, each with dense, 3-4mm long, oval, green
spicules. Bloom time: August-October. |
