Rytidosperma racemosum

Rytidosperma racemosum, or Clustered Wallaby Grass, is a hardy, tufted perennial grass native to Australia, typically found in grasslands, open woodlands, and rocky slopes. Growing up to 50 cm tall, it features fine, arching green foliage and slender, upright flowering stems with clusters of delicate seed heads that bloom in spring and summer, adding movement and texture to the landscape.

This adaptable species thrives in well-drained soils and tolerates full sun, drought, and frost, making it an excellent choice for revegetation projects, erosion control, and low-maintenance native gardens. Clustered Wallaby Grass plays a vital ecological role by providing food and habitat for birds and insects while stabilizing soils in degraded or exposed areas.

With its subtle elegance, resilience, and ecological benefits, Rytidosperma racemosum is a versatile and attractive choice for sustainable landscaping, habitat restoration, and biodiversity-focused plantings.
