Great Wood-rush

Wood-rush key (Poland)

Lvs mostly >6 mm wide (reduces to 4 spp.)
Lvs without midrib raised below
Leaves parallel-sided or widest at base
 -> Great Wood-rush, Luzula sylvatica

Basal lvs 10-50x6-15mm, broadly linear, tapered to v.acute apex, shiny bright green, sparsely hairy, cilia usu >8mm, midrib not discernible from 10-12 main veins ...


The cilia have in this case mostly departed from the edges of these leaves, but they were present last year and checked out
