there is a guy near Melbourne who usually has LOTS of swamp grass for sale if you want to buy it... PM me for details.
I'd sell you some myself if you were closer :D

yes we have tons of it up here. In fact 2 weeks ago QFS had a swamp grass / Johnston grass picking day - great fun and quite a long convoy on rout. Not much water but plenty of ummm, cow "landmines" to dodge lol

Now that would be a sight to see on the roadside!

I need to go pick some november grass myself shortly, just finished my last bag.
