In future, after the covid-19 epidemic is in the past, could someone help you with plants that are difficult to photograph by holding things like grass leaves away from the area being photographed? It is extraordinarily difficult to tell from a photo, even when blown up, which is leaves and which is grass.
The leaves in photo 4 appear to be a narrow leaved Lomandra.
