Field Collection Notes
In knee high grass by the old fig trees. There have been quite a few (<50) of the Cyperus found this year and last. They are not cultivated (that I know of) but are present on an area of the flats that have been a hot spot for introduced plants (bower vine, chinese windmill palm, mist flower, montbretia) in the past
