User's notes

Similar seed head to that of the (nearby) grass depicted at sighting 4651449. However this plant has a much more fulsome look and lacks the sparsity of the latter (? function of the soil/location it is growing in?) This lusher plant gets more shade, and is in softer soil with better moisture holding capacity. It has long shiny strappy leaves and a strappy flower head stem as does the plant at sighting 4651449)
