Gahnia microstachya is a useful small background or space filler plant for the garden. Growing only 60 - 100mm it forms rounded green clumps of narrow, rolled, saw-edged leaves with the brown flower spikes projecting above them. The flowers are eventually replaced by many small brown flattened nuts about 2mm long which are attractive food for wildlife.
Growing on sandy soils of drier sclerophyll forest it is found mostly in the mid and upper Mountains and towards the central western
slopes. This is a “hard to grow” plant from seed or seedling, but we have some nice “rescues” in larger pots from the Upper Mountains which should help give success in your garden.
