Species Details

Flattened Meadow-grass is an occasional native perennial of dry open grasslands, waysides, walls and disturbed ground. It generally occurs in small amounts but can form extensive patches on waste ground. It occurs scattered throughout our area from Salters Brook (SE1300 v.c.58) and Houndkirk Moor (SK2882) in the north to Ticknall (SK3523) and Lock Lane Ash Tip (SK4831) in the south.
