Hi, this grass was growing on the edge of a footpath . Have seen it many a time in different places. Any ideas what it is ? Thanks in advance for any replies   |

Not a grass, but a rush- not the clearest of images, but i think Soft Rush, Juncus effusus.
Grasses, sedges + rushes are all flowering plants- even though the flowers are more subtle than most, so better to post them in main section. Non-flowering plants better for mosses, liverworts, horsetails, ferns + algae really. |

yes, rushes are a great indicator for damp ground, but the 2 last very wet summers have seen them pop up in all sorts of places. |
