<div>It and its weedy brethren - Setaria viridis var. viridis and S. pumila ssp. pumila are all enormously well established throughout our area, unfortunately.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In fact, I believe the vast numbers now of S. viridis and S. pumila to have displaced the native S. parviflora in the more urbanized areas of our region today.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>And it's not as if S. faberi is in any way uncommon either! One is virtually guaranteed of ID collection material in the D.C. area these days sadly on whatever route one takes!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>S. parviflora, nonetheless, is still dominant in the largely clean and intact, sandy-loamy savannah-meadow below and throughout Mount Aventine at Chapman State Park in Charles County, MD.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I also have it in damp, low-lying swales at Jones Point Park along the Potomac River in the City of Alexandria, Virginia. Check out nearby Penny Hill Cemetery though for a comparison of how S. pumila (and similar crud) can wipe out other native meadow
floristic biodiversity.</div>
<div><br>

<div>All the best,</div>
