  • Question

    Graminoid growing in open woods, Lincoln, Massachusetts.

    Answer

    Dear jfc, this looks like Luzula multiflora (common wood-rush), a common species found throughout much of New England in forests but also along edges and in openings. It belongs to a complex of a few species, but it is by far the most common of the complex.
