It is a weed over here, and in our climate it grows anywhere. Because of its small size, itīs not as agressive as other weedy grasses, like Guinea Grass (Panicum maximum, a fast growing and spreading 2+ meters tall grass), so itīs easier to control.
However, lots of people use this plant as remedy. Itīs so popular in some places, that people even cultivate them.

Don't mean to be a "smartie", but this is considered a weed here -- invades every lawn on every street. If anyone wants some, I'll be glad to dig up mine and send it.
One member has or wants this plant for trade.
