#3521 - Romulea rosea var. australis - Guildford Grass
AKA Onion Grass sand Rosy Sandcrocus.
Native to the western Cape Province of South Africa, and introduced to Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and California. An environmental weed in much of the country here. Three other varieties are also now found in Australia, but this is definitely the most invasive. Found in a wide variety of soil types - probably a major factor in its rapid spread. The corms are a popular food with our smaller parrots, at least.
