please help.
I live in the south east suburbs of Victoria, Australia
I am trying to identify some grass i have in my backyard. it has a white silky like cotton that comes out the top. at the end of the silk is a tiny two petal purple/brown flower. the flower is sticky.

i notice it more in summer. My dog has horrific allergies and i am running out of options. I have checked and can not find any wandering jew.
